danlovestikis (aka Wendy) thanks! Yeah it was crazy! I don't think I'll ever again Have an art show at The Biggest Low-Brow gallery on the West Coast : La Luz De Jesus, & an invitation to represent the Big Island of Hawaii at an Expo in Washington D.C. PLUS an invitation to the owner of Body Glove's special river Vacation hone named "THE TIKI SHACK" all in a few weeks again in my life! Whew! Dat was nuts!
Let me tell ya' a few high lights if you have not been looking at FB… here's some different stuff more for Tiki Tribe ears and eyes!
Pretend you are sitting in my swanky home Tiki-Bar" and I got a slide projector and you got a ice cold Mai-Tai…or like dat and here we go…

(L to R)
My Art Agent Abbas, Hawaiian State Senator Mazie Horono (sweet lady!), and then some low-brow Tiki-Artist guy.
OK…. It all started after I was working like crazy getting my big Tiki-Art-Show ready for La Luz. Thank the Tiki gawks, that all went really well! THANX everyone who came out on a Holiday, and bought Tiki-Art, or even just was there spreading the Aloha! Awesome!

….even though I was totally freaked out. Inside, I don't think I was ready. I was visualizing a bigger show. 'Cause the time I was supposed to be getting Tiki-Art done for da' show, I was all distracted by this dag-nab-dumb copy-right law-suit where Cafe-Press stole my art. Yep...It's still going on, and I have no idea what's happening. Really, my lawyer sends me e-mails, ….and I know they are in English ….and I know I can read. ...but I still have no idea what they say. They are written in some sort of Lawyer-Secret Code… and no guy on da' street can ever figure out what they say, mean, or are about.
Well, at least I can't!

Anywho…. "The Chamber of Commerce of Kona-Kohala" asked me to represent the Big Island of Hawaii at a first-time-ever "Taste of Hawaii Business Expo on Capital Hill"!

Wow!

I mean, I wasn't really ready to leave my beloved island again just yet, BUT... you just cannot say no when your STATE asks you to rep them in D.C. …especially HAWAII, (which I dearly love) …nope, just can't… Not to a honor like dat! And asked by such nice Hawaiian Folks. Wouldn't Be ALOHA. So Gotta'!
