Aloha Tiki Tribe.
So, I have a big art-show coming up on July 4th in LA at "La luz de Jesus Gallery". Famous for being the birth-place for the "Low-Brow" Art movement started by Robert Williams. This is the biggest most important show of my career thus far. I will be showing 7 paintings. I had planned on more, but this cursed law suit with Cafe Press, (in which they stole my art and was selling it on line), really threw my Artist' focus off - and I found it very hard to work.
Luckily, my Art Agent talked the gallery into showing what else has been happening with my art over the last 2 years as well, so I'll also show Skate Decks & whole Boards w/custom wheels, Boogie Boards, Beach Towels, and such stuff. Should be a nice amount of eye candy. Even several sketches and drawings will be framed and up for sale.
Here's a look at the paintings.
1.) "The Red Tiki Lounge", 24" x 30" Acrylic on canvas.
2.) "The Wanderer", 15" x 30" Acrylic on canvas. A Tiki-Art version of "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog" (German: Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer; also known as "Wanderer Above the Mist") a painting composed in 1818 by the German Romantic artist Caspar David Friedrich.
3.) "The Body Glove Sea Creature", 24" x 30" Acrylic on Canvas.
4.) "Two Tikis", 18" x 24" , acrylic on canvas
5.) "The Sea Witch", 24" x 30" Acrylic on Canvas.
6.) "Token Tiki on a Sincere-Blue Back-Ground", 24" x 30", acrylic on canvas.
7.) "Vacation Gone Wrong", Acrylic on (distressed) canvas 17" x 27", mounted inside Custom 33" x 26" Bamboo Box Frame, with Black Back ground.
Here's a look at the beach towels:
The Beyond the Reef Beach Towel
The Tiki Cat Beach Towel
The Moon of Manakoora Beach Towel
The Forbidden Island Beach Towel
Many of the paintings have been pre-sold, so call for availability. They have a good supply of beach towels, but the gallery has been steadily selling taking pre-orders of them as well, they even ship over seas. They are going fast, so if you really want one, or a set, contact the gallery now instead of later.
