P

rings is hard.

still in progress . . .

make sure to turn the lights off and lock up
when you leave,Perry...

P

okay

goodnight ubu.

P

Please please, please more notice next year...I would have been all over this if I wasn't so snowed with holiday orders and other commitments. The incredibly weak kiwi $ would have made for some good bargains from me, on the other side of the coin it's also making me weep seeing all this great stuff, and knowing I'd have to double the price + post to own it. AAAIIIEEEEE!

That said, I have never ever seen so much cool stuff posted on TC in one day. Kudos to you Cammo for such a great idea, and all the artists for not just turning up but hitting it right out of the park. Babs, you have just totally blown my tiny little mind.

B

Cammo, Congrats on a Great first! This was an excellent show and full of Top Shelf stuff. I Know the net one will be even More Incredible.
Like Paip says, a bit more lead time will help to bring in more artists me included.
"THANKYOUVERRRYMUCH"

Babs and Bowana definitely tilts the whole curve way out of wack. i say we break their hands.

C

Hey, I think this Art Show got 3000 hits in 2 1/2 hours, which is some kind of record.

We'll leave the Art hanging on the cyberspace wall until December 22nd, then you can all come and take it down!

Yeah, and you should see the stuff Bowana and Babs are NOT showing yet, I don't know what they're saving it for but... cripes!

Merry Tikimas to All and to All a G'day!

This is the LAST DAY!

I'm price slashing mine before taking them down, sale ends at 4:00 today.

(This is the last day you can actually get stuff in the mail and have it arrive at Christmas for reasonable rates.)

Anyway, Mahalo to the artists

and Aloholidays to everybody out there!

I've got Christmas Beignets to make!

B

This was a GREAT show Cammo! I can't wait for the next one :)

This Honu Bowl below became spoken for in the last few moments of the show...

C
Cammo posted on Mon, Dec 22, 2008 6:30 PM

YAY! That bowl is amazing, I heard it took 6 artisans 3 1/2 weeks of toiling under the hot equatorial sun to make it, right? (Were any turtles killed in the making of it? Kidding.)

Hey, thanks to all the artists and participants in this show!

Hap-hap-happy Aloholidays and see everybody next year!

O

O.K. gang, I have something special for you. I'm working with an artist names Song Shen who is a professional portraiture artist. He, at my request, has become a student of classic velvet painting. His work is turning out to be head and shoulders above your typical modern velvets and I think is approaching the league of Leeteg, Erwin, and the rest of the masters. Have a look. These will be going for about $150 on eBay soon but if you want to grab one now drop me a line.

Beautiful work! I just PM'd you Okolehao. I like the cross-legged vahine (the painting!). Please PM me back with the particulars.

Hey OKO,

Dig these velvets!

I just PM'd you too about the chick with the melon.

Aloha!
Great art!
I also just PM'd you
about a couple of paintings.
Mahalo!

They've all got melons. :P

They really are beautifully done; what are the dimensions?

O

To all those who have contacted me, the PM responses I've gotten so far have been great! I'll probably have most of them sold here on TC. For those who have asked - The paintings are approximately 16' x 20' and I'll be selling them using PayPal.

Believe it or not I've asked Song Shen to work a little more on them to even out the skin tones. Working on velvet is notoriously difficult (his background is oil on canvas). I want the paintings to be as good as we can get them so it will be a couple more weeks before they will be ready. I will be posting new pictures of them at that time.

BUMP!
Go Back one page and check out those velvets again!
they're freakin INCREDIBLE!

O

Not to waste precious T.C. server space, but here are the 'freshened up' velvets to be sold. I'm also showing a couple of McPhee interpretations not for sale(so says lawyers - and out of respect). Most of these have already been reserved, but PM if you're still interested and we'll talk.







Tributes to Charles McPhee

Had lots of fun on the night. Here's my setup for the webcast.

Really pleased to have pickup 2 great pieces.

Oko! I just received the 'Cross Legged Vahine'. She is more beautiful in person! I'm just lucky to have seen your post first. Mahalo!

Okolehao,
I received my Girl with Pink Lei today.
She is very beautiful and I like her a lot.
Thanks for offering such nice artwork regardless of whether the pieces are for sale or not.
I really enjoy looking at them all, but especially the Charles McPhee tribute pieces on the website over and over.

O

Here are a couple more Song Shens that will be up soon.


BTW: BIG thanks to Bamboo Ben. He got 'Melon Girl' and said it was going to be installed at Frankies Tiki Bar in Las Vegas. I couldn't ask for more.

I was PM'd asking this:

"Oko,
Are these new paintings going up on Ebay or are you offering first here?"

Answer: TCers will always get first choice. :)

O

A few new ones just completed. The old man is based on Duke Kahanamoku.
