SOK-thanks for paddling over! GROG-I told you your yield would be bigger Sneakers!-Teutonic Neurotic Exotica Boy! Ben-shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I'm gettin there! i'm gettin there! Duddy-what are you laughing at young'un? :) MadDog....you're right.. SAMGAM! Mahalos to y'all for your visits,encouragement,insight,and chuckles! Alrightio! first off... it's about 44" wide and 30 tall... here's some close-ups.... Fishys! row row row your boat.... extra closeup! next one was an experiment using that Solomon island paddle motif as Close-up!!!!! it's called "Homecoming" because the bird is finally freed to live in the sky.... Remember when i promised not to show any drawings unless i had em scanned and the big bird/fish god appearing to the crew... the chief,looking a bit Hawaiian,even tho this series started as a Solomon islands inspired body of work,but oh well.....that's what happens when you stumble into LLTLAND! :lol: Fisher and catcher look it's Sam's Seafood! Okay! Ben was inquiring about seeing some shots of these creations BEFORE they get beautified,so...... here's one... and here's another! in fact, this one, i took some progress shots to show a BooBen creation this piece has to do with ABOVE.... and BELOW.... Next step is doing the background colors and fills in gouache... ABOVE.... BELOW..... after that, i started the indigo outline/blackline and that's as far as that one goes.... Bosch on TV! I love netflix! HALFTIME! Okay! This all started with tobunga and Manuel poppin by.... originality the judging was fast,FAIR.and balanced... then the phone rings.....and it's Squid! Mieko and Squid hung with tobuga and manuel in the front room kitchen area tobunga worked on another one of those lono pillows that are the COOL! and i gessoed up a plaster carny kewpie for a surprise art thing! see mieko! see the kewpie! here's an ink/tissue paper stain of a jellyfish she worked on.... Squid came back from france with a MAJOR drinking problem... You gotta see this sculpture up close... oh! He didn't even mention it was his birthday recently sweetest picture ever! this is how the Toe works.... this one he's really gettin into it! speaking of jerks.... seeing as a larger group had congregated to the front Toe and Clysdalle had to bail early Did i mention SAI BABAlu came all the way up from lemon grove!?!?! Babalu was inspired by the magnamous personality TOE-TOO YOU! (note to the slow:that was a Rolling Stones album cover reference...) Rick also decided to tackle another goofball rick got a little crazy after chewing on those after toe and Clysdalle left, the back room was available so we moved back there and i showed Eric and manuel how they could have fun with ink and tissue paper and watercolor paper and they banged out some beauties! can't wait to see where they take these! Also introduced tobunga to gouache and he was a natural! Here's the very end of a looooong fun day! and thank you Artjam crew!

Wow, what an all around COOL Art Jam that was!! Kinny's studio is so sweet. It's art overload!!...I swear all his paintings breathe...and no, I wasn't trippin'...as he said, I was just a little buzzed on oil sticks and turpentine is all...Kinny's work should REALLY be experienced in real time...pictures/photos just can't capture the power they possess. I guess you all should just buy something from him and you'll see what I mean. Squid's back! YAY! Welcome home dude. Master Toe - Thanks for being such a nice guy as I hacked/slashed and butchered your image right in front of you. Your a good sport. Next? Mieko - Your a kick!...Thanks for playing Spock, and figuring out how to use the GPS on my iPhone. Eric and Manuel - You guys are always a hoot and a holler to hang with. A mad tiki riding a thrashing swordfish...I'll see what I can do. Clysdalle - You RAWK the tiki world hard. You keep doin' what you do man. Bamboo Ben - Your right, the black bamboo is the best. It looks much nicer than the regular stuffs. Ravs, I'll finish the Kinny painting I started soon and post him up. I have never considered myself a great painter, but I do like to dabble. |

Once upon a time two little tikis were out exploring when they heard the volcano erupting! They were scared when they realized that they were lost! They started running and came upon two men fighting. "Why do they fight?", they asked the third man, who was there to make sure the rules of warfare were complied with. "They fight for the honor of releasing the symbolic bird to the gods." So the elders hurriedly went out to sea to offer up the bird to the gods in the hopes of stopping the volcano. Alas, to no avail! The volcano continued erupting and they were all forced to leave their home in search of a new one. . . Ken, nice new pieces. They just seem to make a story. You are the king of intricate detail! |
