I googled it....looks like about two blocks west of the train station....so there will be plenty of parking at the structure, but you have to cross harbor and walk west...it is basically behind Steamers Jazz cafe....

This is gonna suck!

Suck in a gOOd way!!!

People may wonder how these three artists qualify as gargantuan.

Kinny----has a GARGANTUAN ego. Plus he's fat.

Big Toe---he's got BIG in his name, so it's pretty obvious he's gargantuan.

Not really sure how Doug qualifies as gargantuan, maybe it'll come to me later.

Is that like how they filmed gandalf and frodo for the lord of the rings?

Sounds fun, and yay it's close!
Plus it's also by the swanky Continental room,
For you that like to have some drinks.

It's odd Doug doesn't seem that big to me.
Wonder why?

Jeff btd

Doug is BIG in so many ways
especially his Laugh and gentle smile....

Another Flier....
Artjammin with the boys tonight and meeting with Baxter,the curator
for a pep-talk strategy drinking endurance meeting....
I'll keep y'alls posted of any special surprises
like Midgets
or legless arsonist jugglers
or anything....

Stoked to be able to see y'alls SOON!

I'll post a map too...NOT DIFFICULT at ALL to find!

First Kinny says they are all gargantuans and then he posts a flier making them all look like a bunch of pussies. GROG confused. Does that mean they are all gargantuan pussies?

I think the theme is "Existential Horror" or "Clowns"
same thing basically....

Don't you Class Clowns
ever get caught playing hookie?

Another Flier for y'alls!

FM

This is down the street from me, I'll be there and invite some friends along also.

Thanks Fez!
Be sure to introduce yourself to us three when you get there!
Pre-show buzz is that it's gonna be a CROWD showing up!
:)

The Crowd = Beach Blvd.= Suzy Is A Surf Rocker & Right Time?

that makes no sense and is out of context.
Crowd-a large gathering of people
often gathered together for a single event or purpose....

duh...

I am warning people up front: I am probably going to this as I also live in the vicinity, and am a big fan of all three artists. If this will cause a problem, let me know now so I don't bother showing up.

I think he is referring to The Crowd, an 80's OC Punk band....

Hula girls opened for them a few years ago at the light gallery...

Lucas is spot on Kinny, I thought your emphasis on "The Crowd" might have been
a mention of the entertainment, and you say you were a Punk!

I have a problem with you going Lucas,
oh, you wanna carpool?
:wink:

Jeff(btd)

Sorry to bail out on the opening but we're going to The Crowd show that night at the Observatory.
We'll see you at the closing!

Maybe if Lucas not derail every thread him post on and make it about Lucas, Lucas not draw so much animosity. :) You ATTENTION WHORE!!!!! Lucas need to change tag to "I am a sociopath and attention whore" for it to be more accurate description.

Now back to the thread about Kinny, Big Toe, and Doug Horne.

P.S. GROG still love you. :D

[ Edited by: GROG 2014-02-23 11:31 ]

Attention whore, yes.....!!

Sociopath, no.

Damn!! It take Lucas 9 whole minutes to find that something has been written about Lucas and to respond. Must have been busy elsewhere checking Lucas' Twiitter, Facebook, Myspace, Linkedin, Soundcloud, Smokin' Menehune Youtube videos, personal blog, or fan website where Lucas is the only member.

Now,now Grog...Lucas been having major dental surgery and procedure for the last week, so lucas have extra time to screw a around on internet while lucas recover from horrible, horrible experience! Still, Lucas want to support friends like Little lost tiki and go to event..lucas just want to warn everyone ahead of time so that there is no problem. Lucas has received many threats via PM on this forum. Lucas take threats very seriously. Grog understand now?

One more Week of youse idiots and i can crawl back into OTHER CRAFTS...

Here's the Tiki pieces I'll be showing at the exhibition
i told toe and Doug about this post,but they're either too stuck up to post or busy frantically finishing the pieces they've had 4 months to prepare for.... i will prod them to get on here and share......


Here's a flier that i made especially for the event's Opening.. I'll have TEN limited edition prints offered as a Special show commemorative poster... Only Ten made! Get yours the night of the Opening.... a way to pay ken back for all those years of free flier madness,wouldn't you say?


Category:Papua New Guinea
"Sepik River Totem"
around 6' tall""
Acrylic and Paintpen on a well used Surfboard

An old dinged up Surfboard in the studio has been SCREAMING to be transformed into SOMETHING! ANYTHING! So,in order to quiet it down,i have chosen to craft it into an Ancestor Totem,festooned with denizens of the Sepik River....


Category:Marquesan Islands
"Bar with Marquesan Artifacts"
19 x 23""
acrylic on wood with a Bamboo Ben frame

i KNEW Toe and Doug were going to paint a Marquesan Tiki with a girl in one form or another. Desiring to produce something to offset the heavy Girlie theme,i have chosen a bar scene and littered it with relics from that distant and magical land....


Category:Rapa Nui (Easter Island)
"Rapa Nui Nocturne"
17 x 25.5"
Orongo Birdmen,summoned to life from the island's rock petroglphs.Dance around a Moai in the hopes of giving the Stone Spirit...

GOOD NEWS!
The exhibition will be 6 to 10
BUT! there's a 2-hour After party til Midnight there!

I really wanted to go to this on Friday, as I am a huge fan of all three artists, but especially you, LLT.....anyway, I don't want to ruin the good time for others, or stop people from going because they know I will be there....so I am opting out this time. But know that I will be there in spirit!

Come to the Docent Tour the following Saturday,Lucas!

and Way to go taking this thread onto a page with NO INFORMATION ABOUT THE SHOW!
