Awesomeness. Loved the tour of "Pele's River"- digging the warm (hot?) tones of that painting, look forward to seeing it in person.

Man, I have a (similar, just not as groovy) drawing for a mug not unlike your bar wall vignette. I'll have to scan the scrapbook and send it to you, if I can find that scratching on the pad. I was never able to execute it, but now maybe I'll give it a go & do my darndest.

Keep on keepin' on, love seeing all the newest work!
