Aloha Tiki Tribe!

Sad news... I gotta take a business trip to the mainland. Sheesh, I'm really getting so that I hate leaving the island. Funny, folks always talk about getting "Rock Fever" and going crazy unless they get off island... after the 6 + years of living here, the grasp of Madam Pele is fully upon me, and I don't like leaving my island home.
Last Sunday I was at the Wyland Kona Ocean Front Gallery, painting an artist's remarque on a high end giclee, and well, it was just one little remarque...but I was talking with this new art patron who is moving here, and the gallery broke out the wine, all kinds of people are coming in and asking me about my art, next thing ya know I was there all frickin' day! But, it was really a great Sunday at the gallery - I send out big mahalo and aloha to gallery owner Mark Hanna - the one gallery owner here who thought tourists would "get" tiki-art.

IF you find your self in Kailua-Kona Hawaii please stop in and tell Mark he has great artistic foresight, and he's a cool swank dude for digging the Tiki-Art!
