Here is a painting I'm doing based on a Very famous Tiki Polynesian Palace. This is the starting point and it's already shifted direction. I'm using Tikiskip's Lights for some reference. A couple other art pics thrown in as I'm all over the place!

Sven's repeated want...a pic of a lady with a Severed Head Mug at REN CLARK'S...this is my interpretation. OK, So I'm Finished (never really, but I stopped)..finally. It's 20x15 on heavy Watercolor Paper and as usual is sharper than the photo....Watercolor and gouache. I worked on no other Art was I was hell bent to finish this, as I drew the original (quite different) part 4 years ago...and had to finish...which kept me deep into details...like as all you say, any home Tiki Bar...are you ever finished? I hope it's a success. A few other newer pcs I did before this...trying to ramp up speed after, 1st a knee rebuild @4 years or so ago and the Spine Surgery (and 6 months in a rehab center) @ a year ago. Onward and Upward!

That's really good. You've got quite an eye for detail & a brush stroke to support it. Feel free, in fact I would be honored & proud if you used any of my carvings to embellish your paintings. Will [ Edited by Will carve on 2022-12-16 05:50:50 ] |

Those look great! I was going to call you out for there not being bikinis in 1954 but they were actually introduced in 1946 so you're good to go! LOL |

I'm so late to this art party. Wow you have mad skills. I noticed that you even put a Ren Clark tiki in the entrance way, impressive. You have such incredible motion in your art. I'm going to check out what you are up to from now on. Well done, I think sketching if far harder than painting. |

Turned out great! I think simplicity and proper use of the negative space are key to black velvet and you have done them both well |

I agree with Mike--your sketches are captivating even before they're fleshed out. You've got a knack for packing a lot of details and character into a few lines on the page! |
