Aloha Tiki Tribe!

Before I put ink and brush to penciled paper, I wanted to practice a little. I'm a bit rusty.
I USED to only do black and white ink… now been doing color painting..
I kinda forgot how to do the black and white ink thing…

Been doing the more tribal-tattoo designs for Sam Choy's products…so that's been good b & W work.
But an illustration is different!
SoI started with a Tiki drawing…

Then I'm inking that….
Get me back in the mind set of black and white spaces, positive and negative images.
Tricky stuff, boy I used to be really not too bad at this, now I feel like a kid half drowning doing
the dog paddle as fast as he can in the deep end of the pool trying to get to the shallow part!
GASP!

Slowly working it out….
more laters!
