ALOHA TIKI TRIBE! So, they do seem to like my stranger stuff. I'm honored and happy they do! Glad I was able to spread some of our "Tiki Culture" through this venue. The original painting of "Hawaiian Eye" will be on display in my "Tales from the Tiki Lounge" art show this July 6th to July 29th, at the Los Angeles "La luz de Jesus Gallery", Opening night is July 6th. So you can give it an eye ball in person there. Afterward it is being shipped to the art patron who bought it. (a very nice gentleman who is, appropriately enough, a law enforcement officer who has a taste for tiki and skulls and cats.) Here's a link to the show at La Luz: Big Mahalo to the folks at SPECTRUM. The SPECTRUM 19 book comes out in Nov, and is available for purchase through most book stores. [ Edited by: tiki shark art 2012-04-27 01:02 ] |

WOW!!! That's incredible! Mahalos Tiki Shark! I'm humbled by the dedication... and that piece is fantastic! I like your choice of Godzillas, from the Millennium series... my second favorite suit, after the 1964 version (from Godzilla vs. Mothra)! The movie Grog mentioned, Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, is also known as Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, or GMK for short. It came out in 2003. It's pretty freakin' awesome! If you haven't seen it, check it out! The effects are spectacular, and Godzilla is really scary! It's probably my favorite Godzilla movie... uh oh... yer right! I am a big Godzilla geek! Mahalos again! |

Brad, Congrats on your Spectrum selection! Very cool and well deserved... Tiki vs Godzilla is looking terrific... Lots of color and great action. Love that the beach babe is just lounging about as the future if the planet is being decided in the background. What's going on with "Bongo Cat"? Any updates? Keep rocking those paints! Peace, |

ALOHA TIKI TRIBE! So just a few touches left. Then It's done and will be posted up on the La Luz De Jesus web site for SALE at the big ART Show on July 6th. Anyways, if you can make it to the opening, GREAT, they are usually very fun! It's "La Luz de Jesus Gallery", and the hardcore L.A. hipster art crowd that usually attends is as much fun to look at as the art on the walls. If you can't make it, no worries.... I'll just be there... alone ... in my underpants... crying. ALOHA! [ Edited by: Tiki Shark Art 2012-05-09 02:59 ] [ Edited by: Tiki Shark Art 2012-05-09 03:12 ] |

Aloha tiki Tribe!
I warped all the perspective lines to meld the elements together *& I think it really helped bring it all in to a nice composition, instead of leaving a bunch of disconnected elements. ... now to think about light sources, warm light, cool shadows... Let's see.. well, there's a warm red/orange/yellow sunset. So, they She-Bat will be green/Blue to stand out along with much of the Tiki Bar and Palm Trees... or do I have She-Bat a red color too, so she becomes part of the back ground and looks more like a phantom watching over the city? Hmmmm....If the Tiki Bar is cool colors, the inside of the tiki bar it has to be warm colors... the car can be warm colors to stand out from a cool toned street - it's metal reflecting the red sun set sky I guess. I suppose I should once again try the layering effect: do a monochromatic under-painting and then laying in thin tints of color over that till I get what colors I want... this might save me from major screw ups. But, it's a tricky process, and you can end up just re-painting instead of "tinting". Eating up lots of time. Like painting the painting twice. ... it takes practice. Hmmmm. So, to break it into a foreground - creating framing devices. Then a middle ground area. & then a back ground, .. it's all about creating depth, depth depth... and... More to come!
