here are a few new pieces. the first three were sold at my holiday sale and I just snapped a couple of pix before they went out the door. Pardon the glare.
The next two are large watercolors that I did in 98. I've been trying to get old artwork documented. [ Edited by: Sophista-tiki 2007-01-13 12:36 ] |

Thanks LLT, you are defiantly my cheering section. Im dying to get my desk cleared off and start some new paintings. Im currently working on some upholstery projects for the Rivieras. I was hoping to finish up today, but maybe tomorrow. There will be good before and after pics. As I look through all of the art Ive posted here its neat to see the slight style changes, and with the older pieces Im glad that I still find them beautiful. Of course as an artist I like to think that my skill level increases with each piece. |

DB and Dawn, That is one badass kitchen! I did a similar paint job at my old subdiv. home but with highly textured walls it wasn't so crisp. Nice work. Love the before and afters. |

Thanks LLT, Ditto for me. Ive been looking at the pics and looking at the rocket, and it looks way cooler in person. I will re shoot it today, and put on the final layers of protctive coating . Now what do I do with it, is it time to ship it back? Dogbytes wants to see it in person before it leaves. Dawn |

I think if you ship it by the beginning /middle of next week should be fine! We need to get a release form thingie from Dave before shipping.....I think he 's about to have a baby or may have already had it,so he may be mucho busy! Can't wait to see the close-up better shots! I use a tripod and it really helps eliminate all the fuzziness.Plus I shoot the work with Super Hi-Quality-so I have a big and sharp enough image to keep for the records AND a file to shrink and get ready for the web! |

Hey Dawn, That looks really cool! I dig the underwater vibe and the colors. I think there could be a great story line behind it. Glad to see you got yourself a decanter and will be displaying your art amoungst the other TC artists. Chongolio |

Yea! Thanks pals! I appreciate your comments. I'm still exploring the look of the vintage menu cover art and composition, I think that there are still a few more of this style to be created. and I'm getting a little better at combining the watercolor and gauche. I wish I could have taken a pic of the frame. but I figured that It will be on line after the London Luau for 1 month and hopefully their pictures will show the frame. I am getting over my fear of the table saw that Ive owned for a few yrs and that makes it much easier to make my own frames. |

My wife & I were first introduced to Dawn's work at the Tiki Art Now 3 ! in Seattle last September. Her stuff stood out so incredibly much from the others. (Sorry Shag, your 3 panel was very cool, but...) I've since seen dozens of her works, from both the past and in current progress, and there is no limit to what Dawn can do. I see a Tiki Magazine cover in her future, no doubt, and I'm so happy that we've become friends. Dawn is just as cool and fun as her amazing artwork. RIGHT ON, DAWN!!!! Congrats on the new stuff! -Andy |

AAWWW, gawsh, thanks. I appreciate the acknowledgment. I feel like I'm just really getting started, on life in general. But especially on my art. Even thouh Ive been doing "TIKI" for nearly 20 yrs, I do feel like my ideas are just starting to really come together and that I'm finally making good art. and of course I'm always striving to be a better painter. and I definitely have learned alot form the amazing artists here on TC |

What a great collection - the PNG ones are awesome. You have a quite distinctive colour palette in your paintings. I'd also like to see the rest if you get some pics. |

I totally agree with Tekoteko your art is beautiful & I'm sure if he tried hard he could find something to hang a piece of your art on? Hope to see more of the finished pieces and maybe have an opportunity to buy one if there are any leftovers after Waldorf. Again, thanks for sharing these they are great! Tikisgrl |
