Aloha Tiki Tribe!
Todays Tiki Art in progress….
Fighting with the Cat in the haunted hotel Honolulu!
Did some sketch work after I work up in the middle of the night with ideas bouncing round my head.

The original sketch is a tad worn and "shows much love" now as it's been used as reference.

After talking to the artist who inspired this painting, we agreed it should show "My version" of cartoon cats…this led to a dream that my cat my not have a Micky-Mouse glove, but a fingerless Low-Brow Glove instead…

The light sours will be a sunset coming in da' window… with a classic wave on Waikiki Beach…

Here's where we are now…. the rooms starting to RAWK!

The wave is giving me a little trouble…but I thin this monochrome is about to loose it's usefulness

Here you can see the cartoon glove in it's low-brow state. Problem is it's complex and doesn't "READ" quickly. So color should help…

So it's starting to happen…still need a "old timey record player". It's been hard to pin down exactly what form a 1930's record player technology looked like… the net jumps around a lot!
The light and color will all be coming in the window…into a black and white 1930's cartoon room.
Never tried this idea, should be interesting…. (fingers crossed!)
ALOHA!
