Night of the Lepus (ok no I am kidding that would be terrible).:lol:

Deforest Kelley and bunny mug! HAHAHAHAHA!

Not utterly tiki, but part of a tribute show to Mary Blair, creator of small world. This is obviously still in progress and will be a nod to some of her early work.

Looks good so far. Isn't there a Mary Blair tribute show coming up somewhere?

Yesirree! Up here in Sonma county, as a matter 'o' fact. Mister Kinney, the Toe, M to the P, the atomic Tony, myself, and many others will be making offerings!

Really like your concepts!!!! Sooo fun.

Thanks!

The blair boat has drifted out of the swamp, and into a tiki lagoon...

I always smile when I see you post. This one is so cute. Wendy

Wendy!!!!! YAY!!!!
Our little friend's boat has apparently run aground in a lagoon, where he offers a pearl to the mermaid of blair's small world, while Zero and Blair~esque tikis look on in approval...

...he also seems to have dropped his hat.

I am also working on a TikiModern piece, as yet untitled:
MOVED TO OTHER PROGRESS IECES, BELOW

You have become the Picasso of tiki. Somehow you managed to show strength in this painting. Good Job, Wendy

I can recognize the Tiki, I think that disqualifies it as abstract :lol:
Lookin' good Zero!

You have a rather valid point there, Mike...
:D

wow...so cool pictures, amazing!!
I wish I could be able to draw like you

thanks for the kind words, esper, Wendy, and Mike! I am working on some new stuff in drips & drabs, in between doing some minor non-tiki consignment work and prepping for my bookstore's new look, icluding Tiki Tuesdays! Yes, Wendy, I will make sure to keep everybody posted!

Almost done with the NON-abstract (well spotted, Mike) and recently traded a piece for a shrunken head tattoo! L'il Momo is now a permanent fixture on yours truly~
Cheers,

Almost done with one piece, and I started a new abstract!
"Robert" (homage to Mr Rauchenberg and Tiki Bob)

Don't worry, guys... I am ALSO working on my fire piece, as well as trying to find a battered briefcase for a spy case build for TO 12!

PHEW!

Here is my progress on the Pele swap, as masterfully assembled by MDM---

The best fires start in the darkness.

From the darkness, the fire bearer emerges.

The glow has started to rise...

The red heat from the volcano begins to consume...

...a moment of darkness obscures the features, as the offering is readied.

The moon's light calms Pele..

soothing those who deliver her warming fire.

"Come", says Pele..."Open your eyes..."

"I will light your way."

"let Pele transform you..."

"bring me the fire..."

"and Pele will smile upon you."

"for the Fire Bearer will be watched over by Pele".

The first and only Pele morph, that was a fun ride. Wendy

I think I'll copy the Pele "poem" that evolved through this on the back when it's finished. LOVING your pele bob!

The poem, as it will be in the swap..

The best fires start in the darkness.

edit: ....I can't spell "poem", apparently.

Painting and a Poem, it's a twofer! Very nice Zero

Thanks Mike... I do what I can!
New abstracted piece in progress, "Goofin' around"
18 X 24

Also working on this hibiscus skull diorama. Just need to add a tiny towel.

A new abstract...after many moons! This one, Zed the Marquesan, is headed off to his new home as we speak!

Finally! Tiki tots are here!
