I like the way you have the palm trees incorporated into the edge of the paintings. I can see you illustrating books with this style. They each have a story going on.

T tikifille Member Joined: Nov 18, 2002 Posts: 123	T tikifille Posted posted on Wed, Oct 8, 2003 6:30 PM These are wonderful. They actually remind me of Edward Gorey (on a tropical vaction) minus the woeful captions. Very clever, indeed.

T tikitony Tiki Socialite Ventura, CA Joined: Aug 18, 2002 Posts: 861	T tikitony Posted posted on Tue, Oct 28, 2003 9:55 PM hey, tanks pea, and tikitanked. Well, each drawing is on 8x11 cardstock paper, which most take less than an hour to draw, and I only charge $25. per hour for these. So, each is only $25. No real website yet, and probably not for a while, since I still can't figure out the whole ftp, web hosting thing. Anyone wanna trade tecky for tiki?

F FLOUNDERart Tiki Socialite Orlando Florida Joined: Sep 02, 2003 Posts: 1140	F FLOUNDERart Posted posted on Thu, Oct 30, 2003 1:06 PM Tony I was looking through the pics,pics,pics, section and noticed a question you asked me that I missed about Ron English's Billboard Liberation. What is it and were can I see some? The painting I did for Crazy Al was definitely inspired by Basquiat, just a little tighter in some aspects. I love Basquiats work. Have you seen the movie, it gets me in the work mode when I'm not inspired. Get back to me on Ron English (sounds familiar)

The ending is kind of eerie now with them walking down the sidewalk and saying something like "I've got to get out of this place" with a shot of the twin towers looming in the background.

Funny stuff, and seems to be similar sense of humor as you. Its hard to tell if this guy loves life or hates it, but he gives you something to think about.

I have seen some of his work before, never the billboard though, which I dig. I swear I come up with ideas like those every day. You were right same though patterns! Thank Tony

Don't get messed up! I have some palm wood my neighbor gave me and I am gonna start seeing what I can do with it...chisel anyone?? Dave
8 8bitmagic Member berkeley Joined: Jan 29, 2004 Posts: 3	8 8bitmagic Posted posted on Thu, Jan 29, 2004 2:09 AM yeah dude...shoes. maybe some deck shoes and aviator sunglasses purely for safety...a quick technical question: can you carve with a machette? its all i've got. great work
B Benzart Member Port Saint Lucie, Florida Joined: Jan 09, 2004 Posts: 10397	B Benzart Posted posted on Thu, Jan 29, 2004 1:12 PM Yeah, I need chisels. Tikitony, have you tried any of those quarter and dime tipped Chainsaw Blades? They will do wonders to the wood. not sure if this pic will post.
T tikitony Tiki Socialite Ventura, CA Joined: Aug 18, 2002 Posts: 861	T tikitony Posted posted on Sat, Jan 31, 2004 10:01 PM THe garz yeah, it can be a bit dangerous, and now that its cooled down a little, I wear shoes, The chiki tiki thought I was a bit off when he heard I was carving with the flip flops. Ben, no, I havent used any of those skinny chain bars yet, I imagine I'll get one someday, but I'm amazed what those cheepy $39 14" Home Depot "limb n trim"s will do. 8bitmagic, I've got the deck shoes, and aviator glasses on my shopping list, and yes, I have tried using a machete, but it was only $1.99 and it wouldn't even cut a rug, let alone a palm. Maybe a well sharpened machete will do the trick, I'll try that.

Very cool stuff. How old is that one? The teenies who worked there didn't know anything about it...

Especially the Easter Island head w/pirate ship in the background. Pirates and Tikis! That's what I'm talkin' about! Your lamps are very creative too, your style is all your own! Keep posting your stuff and (thanks to Poly-pop) I'll have to check out your tiki at rip curl! edited because I was too itchy with the "submit" button [ Edited by: Polynesiac on 2004-02-09 13:25 ]
