I am very happy with this towel, and I'm jazzed with this whole project... the actual fact that I was able to have such cool "low-brow Tiki-Art" in the mainstream rep-ing a major Surf Brand has really made my inner Art Muse very happy. It's gettin' TIKI out there in the world where maybe it wasn't seen before. And, after a few go arounds with a few different factories I think we finally found one that can get a full color painting screened down to work as a Beach Towel design... This was tougher than I thought. We are now, after seeing this prototype, making the towel a little thicker, (one notch up from the average tourist souvenir towel, getting a Woven label instead of a printed one, all to keep in step with Body Glove's higher standards as a hard core surf brand. When you look at both the towel and the original painting, I think they got darned close, even bumped up the green on the creature a bit to brighter - suitable for eye grabbing in the tourist shop. Ah, what will the tourists think when they see this monster? I know it's a limited edition and will go fast, barely making the shelfs anywhere really, but, what a hoot if will be for the lucky few vacationers who stumble upon it! ~ Grab your Extremely Limited Edition new "The Body Glove Sea-Creature Beach-Towel" before they are gone - disappearing like the mysterious beast itself... PRE-ORDER yours today from http://www.mahalotiki.com (916) 265-1241 talk to Nelson Parker. — with Nelson Parker. ALOHA! [ Edited by: tiki shark art 2013-08-03 17:56 ]
