Leroy, one of the greatest regrets regarding all the Tiki events I will have to miss this summer due to working in Germany is that I missed YOUR opening because of that, and that I will miss the show, 'cause I won't be back til the end of June. Damn!
My congrats to a great show of an all-around-talent artist,
Sven

We will be there the 17th for sure! Can't wait!

We're gonna stop off at the Friendly Hills Lanes before the reception (2ish) for a Zombie!!! We stopped in before the last reception and were pleasantly surprised!!! It's a funky old bowling alley worth at least a look at. And it's only a few blocks away. http://www.amf.com/friendlyhillslanes/centerHomepage.htm

Damn, damn , damn ! My appointment is the same time . I wish there were more time but the exhibit is only from 3-5 . Manu, the tattoo artist is in Beverly Hills for 1 month from Tahiti . Ive been waiting for ever to get something done by him . Hes doing a tiki on my calf surrounded by tahitian symbols .Tiki Kinniki and I will be there from 2:15 to around 7 pm . Then we will hit Trader Vics and then to the submarine races behind the Hollywood sign . Here is some of his type of freehand work .

The reception is in the making , food is all set, musicians are ready. All my kids will be in town all 6 of them and grand kids too. This Saturday is not the close of the show but an opportunity to have everyone gather and celebrate I turned 73 this week so it is a culmination of my art throughout my life and a reflection of art and tiki in my family's life. Hope to see you all there, We have some new limited addition tees and postcards of some of the pieces in the show.
The Show is up until May 30th Gallery Hours: Wed -Sun 12:00/5:00 (Sundays I am at the gallery 2-5pm)

The Gallery is open at 12:00 pm on Saturday so feel free to drop by earlier if need be.
