ALOHA TIKI TRIBE!
Here's the latest painting - I think it's done. I better stop, or fear overworking it.

The Body Glove Sea Creature
24" x 30"
Acrylic on Canvas

Here's a closer look at the main feature - the creature!
this painting was inspired by a short surf film by Greg Browning at Body Glove you can see that here:
http://surf.transworld.net/1000151561/videos/imaginarium-body-gloves-the-disappearance/
It then in turn inspired a set of three tiki mugs - that will be made by tiki farm and out later this year.
Then, giclee #1 of 10 is already spoken for and set to hang in the Body Glove HQ. (maybe in Greg's office?)
Then there's gonna be a larger film project - much being talked about and might already be in the works, (still kinda of hush -hush, but I think it's almost done!)
A big mug and movie release party next Oct here in Kailua Kona Hawaii with the director , the owners of Body Glove and Scott Smith (the creature)
plus a special limited edition print to the first 100 mug sets sold.
The original will hang in my 2014 Summer art show at La Luz De Jesus Gallery" in LA.
There will be canvas giclee prints, paper giclee prints... and of course my agent is talkin to some very fine folks about the sale of the original...

Big Aloha!
