If you aren't familiar with that site, they are regularly one of the top 10 most popular sites on the net. A great source of interesting stuff. It should give our man a giant spike in his web site hits! Yeah Flounder!

I sold ten pieces, and have about ten more commisions. I didn't paint a lick today, just answered emails one after the other. At the same time I'm also painting three burlap paintings for a new tiki bar, and doing tiki playing cards for a game company. I think I need an apprentice. Oh yea and I'm trying to finish my tiki/robot series. Need more coffee! Much more. Thanks for the thread Swanky
