I really dig that shrunken head too....The theme itself...the head in repose....reminiscent of john the baptist....and especially taking the semi-cubist angle...it kinda makes it into a higher art than the usual kitsch treatment of the subject matter. Glad you enjoyed your visit! On 2012-08-30 06:56, danlovestikis wrote: One page is never enough. I just have to back paddle to look at those I've been missing.

Your encouragement,and love always brings inspiration and smiles to my heart! and I'll keep em coming as long as you do,my dear! xoxoxoxox ookay! It's been awhile,but here's some more progress on the 6 foot Cannibal King Still not done,but CLOSER! Lot's of Progress made on this puppy over the labor Day weekend! i had worked here and there,for an hour or two every few days,but pulled a marathon paint/nap/paint/nap/repeat from Saturday morning til Monday evening! Iced Coffee...i Loves YOU! here is the TOP-MIDDLE-BOTTOM joined together so you can get a better look at the deets! a little more fleshing out of Tommy's favorite bird! not actually... this bird gives Toe the CREEPLES! Detail of top left bird As you can see, i realized that these poor birds need a little bit of comfort and stability in their lives and community.soooooo i made a few nests inside the skulls! Close-up detail to show how the ribs and horns and tusks are affixed to the helmet.Two obvious head wounds serve as the perfect spot to cram and tie some ribs onto! :) a little bit more work down here...not much.... Should i add flowers? hmmm.... A little bit more detail on the bowl of snacks ,chest,and arms Nosey Neighbor Bird fleshed out a little bit more... There! Much more comfortable! a half finished nest... Even tho the Cannibal King derives his Helmet shape from the Lono style from Hawaii,i have taken some liberties,as usual, and added 1) the cassowary-ish birds and 2)this smiling heart shaped mouth,both loosely inspired by Papua New Guinea fauna and decorative motifs... Sorry! When you create your own artistic world and inhabit it with characters,there's bound to be some overlap and whatnot... and so ends our entry for tonight.. Sweet Dreams Ohana! and thanks for all the visits! http://www.kenruzic.com will be up someday,REALLY! I'm on FaceBook Too!Look me UP,folks! [ Edited by: little lost tiki 2012-09-04 19:42 ]

I want to see those Modernist Studies turned into paintings now! you will make me part with some of my hard earned cash for one of those (who needs electricity anyway?) Since "Sliver of moonlight" is resting in the Atomic Tiki Lounge, you know I love long time where your taking that theme. I could learn to respect you....maybe.... :) :) :)
T tigertail777 Member Oregon Joined: Nov 25, 2004 Posts: 679	T tigertail777 Posted posted on Sun, Oct 28, 2012 9:11 AM Love the latest painting! HOLY CRAP those skulls are the stuff of nightmares....brrr! Regarding colorforms: I had several over the years the two main ones I remember are a Mickey Mouse birthday party one with the art probably directly stolen from the 1930's Floyd Gottfredson comic strips. And a large set for Peanuts summer camp where it had a stand up 4 way divider that you could stick the colorforms to as a backdrop, and it also had cut out stand up Peanuts characters that you could stick on various props and clothing kinda like paper dolls. The whole thing seemed based off of the movie I grew up with: "Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown". Oh I think I also had a Popeye one too, at one point I went through a Popeye craze due to watching the package TV show where the guy would host the cartoon clips and show you how to draw the Popeye characters. I also used to love getting Shrinky Dinks, especially the glow in the dark kit where you could make a jointed skeleton. :)

Was there a Sea Hag and Jeep? Found this Battlestar Galactica one online... was probably too old by the time this came out... and Shrinkydinks! YES! used to trace old Kirby Thor poses and Romita Spiderman and Villian situations and make necklaces out of em! Good Stuff! mahalos for the visit,tigertail! :) "the Watchful Eye" ink,sharpie,and Copic marker on Aquarelle watercolor paper 14 x 10" this drawing shows the birthing of the bridge,the 2-sided croc tanks and birds, the waterfall,and some of the mugs chosen to attend.... After a false start on a smaller page,decided to go bigger and maybe ...instead of making a painting for this piece a well-involved and masterful drawing framed beautifully would be the proper and respectful entry for the exhibition in January... So i sketched and inked out this final.. Took me about 12 hours and a lost night of sleep but well worth the effort... "Gathering at the Spirit's Hut" Copic Marker and Sharpie on Aquarelle Watercolor paper 18x24.25" Two Birds examining a Curious Crocodile... Three Birds taunting a hungry crocodile in this tank... a little lower... some of the lighting at the Spirit's Hut Also note the bird/croc carving carving suspended by the ceiling as well as two flanking crocodile shields behind the hut... the path to the bridge through the opening court... a little further over ... Note the drums (bird and croc) over by the vegetation... the obligatory Spirit hook the moat...filled with crocs..... Also note my two FAVORITEst wooden carved planters EVER! the crocodile bridge over the moat... Shield attached to one of the HUGE trees growing inside.... Also note the HUGE clamshell and lil mug on the shelf to the right... a lil PNG bowl next to a Very happy little fellow... AND WHAT is that to the right? Where is this motif also used on a mug? Can u guess? Here he is front and center.... PNG Birdman face (based on a configuration on a Sepik river mask) a carved skull bowl (sans skullcap) and a shield inspired mug peepin from the bottom To the right of the fallen warrior bowl i have tangled up 3 mugs.... a PNG drum mug (with Babalu and Squid fondly in my thoughts) a spooky "radiating Eyes" motif in addition to YET another shield motif bottom right with the happiest stirrer EVER!.... and ....after another 14 hours of watching Black and White Horror films and drinking copious amounts of coffee and 5-hour energies and ciggies i am proud to say..... IT"S ALIVE!!!!! May i present to you dear Ohana... "Gathering at the Spirit's Hut" Copic Marker,Ink, and Sharpie on Aquarelle Watercolor paper 18x24.25" Here's four shots of each corner We'll close-in and look around in a sec.... Looks like FUN? Come On! Let's go take a look around... Please do not wander too far from the group The crocodiles have not been fed yet. Wandering sleepily from a dugout canoe after a 4-hour glide thru the Sepik River you arrive at your destination... the SPIRIT's HUT! Welcome! Twist down the trail under the crescent moon towards the Welcoming green glow of the entrance.... To your immediate right are what i gather to be 10 foot carved wooden drums Also note the HUGE MONOLITHIC Stone carving for the kids to crawl all over... Upon entering you turn around and take in the MASSIVE shield in the recess of the entrance hut Also Check out the PNG Crocodile tribute shields flanking in the background.. I like how they ALSO form smiley happy fellows! :) Here's the ENTIRE Opening atrium/courtyard/receiving space...

I dig the black light idea that would be awesome... but I know how much printing is on things like that...too bad I think your work would look exceptionally awesome in black light. Since I know now you paint in your sleep... do those birds...ummm whisper things to you? Tell you to do things you probably shouldn't do? Unspeakable acts of mayhem for those birds with the big eyes that penetrate your soul and pin it down like a gentle butterfly to cardboard? I've seen how they stare. It's not natural. They want something.

Been doing a lot of woodburning lately... "the Voyage Home" Pyrography (woodburning) and matte acrylic tinting on wood 6x6" before tinting "Fishing Expedition" pyrography and matte acrylic tinting on wood 8x16" private collection "night of the crocodile god" "Fishing Expedition" pyrography and matte acrylic tinting on wood 8x16" Private Collection another woodburn,but instead of the Solomon Islands,i decided to take inspiration from the art of the people of the Sepik River in papua new Guinea... "Night in the Village" Pyrography and matte acrylic tinting on wood 8x16 "the Bellyache" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on wood 4x12" "Smiling Sun" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on wood 6x6" "Happy Tapa"" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on linen 8x10" "Smiling Shield" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on wood 6x12" "Feast" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on wood 6x6" "Crocodile Bird Shield" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on wood 4x12" "Closing Time" Acrylic and cel-vinyl on wood 8x10" and finally,another peek into the process this one will tackle the formation of a final composition of a narative How to capture a myth,not just a snapshot from it (which i had recently already tackled in a Hercules and the Nemean Lion painting) but actual storytelling a bit....a capturing of the most dramatic part of a story but still leaving the background stuff accessible to the viewer.... Such was the dilema for this painting a painting that will grace the walls of Rothick Art haus in Anaheim on january 12th... Sooo after reading SO many crocodile thangs,i couldn't find a myth that immediately formed a picture story in my head... then i went back to this sculpture,and the story behind it... and the story... jungle Motherly Love and loss an Ancestor Spirit a Bird head (i chose a Kingfisher,like the sculpture) and the consequences of not contributing to the well-being of the village a morality tale of sorts.... Here's some of the sketchbook studies... Here are some studies... once i got the basic composition down cracked open the books and started doing studies of the folks living on the Sepik River.... and here is the final piece..... "Bird headed Woman" 27.5 x 38" (shown without Bamboo Ben frame) will shoot it with frame later... acrylic,cel-vinyl,and paintpen on wood details! See if you can identify parts of the story... That's it for this batch kiddles! i will leave you with a fond mahalo for all the love and a shot of my almost finished newly refurbished studio library! Aloha!

Secondly, the bird woman one... I am floored. You are using a style I don't think I have seen you utilize before; a much more realism based style with a hint of cartoony. It's a little jarring after what I normally see you do, but I like it. I especially dig the subtle graduation of tones. This style of yours sort of reminds of of Japanese Ukiyo-e prints. I always find it interesting to see all the different styles an artist is capable of doing. You really spent some time on this one I can tell, and it turned out really wondrous. :)

Thank you so much for visiting and writing.... Been busy as a bee,but finally found that if i don't sleep i can get more done....Horrible on the looks tho! :) That so-called "new" style is actually an OLD style revived for this show because i wanted to display a range of styles and mediums for this array of themes for the Clash show.... If you look in the early pages of this thread at "Land Of Pele" "the Arrival" Any of the Surfboards that were painted..they all utilized this style... Dropped it for a while to get better at the brush only (was feeling like less of an artist because half was acrylic and the other half was just embellishing/drawing over it with paintpen.....) Well, i got over that and will be returning to this style as it goes a LOT faster sometimes than the purely painted pieces....Glad you picked up on the Asian graphic influence....some of those prints make my jaw drop...a perfect blend of masterful drawing,color,and filling of the space,often to clever effect! Thanks so much for enjoying this piece...it makes me happy when i can move and inspire my fellow artists! :) On 2012-12-12 16:38, Robb Hamel wrote: I feel sorry for the septic bird: does he feel well?
