Aloha Tiki Tribe!
Still working on a special re-mark….

Becoming an painting all it's own…

reworking many things that needed it…

This fully painting a giclee gave me an idea for a future art show.

Not in 2016. Too many pieces are already called out a& have requested material.
However, perhaps... if all goes well, and if "La Luz de Jesus Gallery" asks me back yet again. Two years after that I would do 13 more paintings.
But they would be different.
#1 would be a canvas 24" x 30" painted my usual way acrylic , 1 to 2 months.
Then, I'd have it photographed and made into a full sized giclee on canvas.
Then I'd paint on that Giclee for "Tiki Painting #2" for 1 to 2 months.
Then, photograph that and make another giclee on canvas, full size (24" x 30"), and I'd paint on that for 1 to 2 months to become "Tiki Painting #3"
…and so on until 13 Tiki paintings were done…and each would be ever evolving and be a more complex image created step by step, till by the end, 2 full years of work are on one 24" x 30" canvas (printed and painted).
Interesting, huh?
Maybe I'd call it "Thirteen Tikis".

I have to ask The curator of "La Luz" about it.

BUT... first, of course I gotta' paint the 2016 Tiki-Art show…. which I think will include my 5 new Token Tiki toy designs being created for K C Hawaii Inc. - drawings to finished factory made and then hand painted by me, Tiki figurines!
