Love all your work...delightful Tiki characters.

Both great Robert. Especially love "Ceremony's End" He looks satified that it was such a great party but still sad it had to end

Thanks again everyone! Happy to see this piece receiving this response!

I posted over at Marketplace, but just want to mention here the 15% off sale going on at the store. Check it out here:

Thanks Wendy! I think he's thinking "Hope Robert finishes this painting before the new year!" :D

Love the eyes on the mask Robert. You have captured the shell inlay look well.

Mask and Moai- killer....

Thanks Mike and Hang 10!

Here's a bit of progress on the Moai painting....still pretty busy with trading cards work although I'm taking on less of that.

Big news coming up soon!...and in connection with that news, I may be in California for just a few days early December. More soon!

Hi All,

I'll be at a signing event at Disneyland's Wonderground Gallery on Dec. 6th. Disney will be unveiling my 2 paintings seen below. The original and prints will be available for purchase. The event is from 11am-1pm. Hope to see some of you there!

Robert’s imagination and desire to draw were first fueled by his frequent visits to the corner newsstand in his Brooklyn neighborhood to purchase comic books, especially those that featured the art of Neal Adams, George Perez, and Jim Aparo. Later, the films seen on local TV, everything from the comedies of Abbott & Costello and The Marx Brothers, B Monster movies, and especially the Planet of the Apes series, left a definite imprint in his work. More recently, an interest in Tiki and Pulp Art have been added to the mix. Incorporating an ever-growing cast of Apes, Tikis, and appearances from the likes of Doc Savage, Tarzan, The Shadow, and more. He is creating a unique narrative through his paintings and sculptures.

Robert’s work has appeared on album covers, in publications such as Tiki Magazine and Pinstriping & Kustom Graphics Magazine, and has shown in galleries including Harold Golen, M Modern, Creature Features, and Bear & Bird. He has worked for Topps, Cryptozoic, and Upper Deck on Licenses such as Mars Attacksi, Star Wars, DC Comics, Marvel Comics, and Adventure Time.

Thanks Wendy. Hope to see some Tiki Central members there!

Thought I'd share the process pics I took of my Rongo painting. Again, this will debut at Disneyland's Wonderground Gallery on Dec 6th.

It's very weird Robert but he looks alive. Super cool, Wendy

Don't forget to have someone take photos of your signing event at Downtown Disney. I'm so sorry to miss it but you would cheer me up with photos. Congratulations and hugs, Wendy and Dan

Hi Robert, you must be packed and ready to go. We are so sorry to miss you. Enjoy Downtown Disney and Trader Sam's. I hope some tiki peeps will be there to say hi. Best Wishes for a perfect trip. Wendy and Dan

Hi All!

Had a great time in California. Met up with HB Tiki and Gecko for dinner and met Kenny and Big Toe at the signing on Saturday. Happy to report that my Rocketeer painting sold immediately. Not sure of the Rongo is still available. There are prints of both and magnets of Rongo for sale at the store. If you are not near Disneyland you can call Disney Merchandise Guest Services at 877-560-6477 and they'll ship it out to you.

Here are a few pics, more soon!




Looks like my wish came true and you had a wonderful trip. I'm so envious of your dinner out with my brother from another mother Gecko. I hope you are home safe and telling the girls all about your trip. I hope you have more photos to post and more art on the horizon to share. Cheers, Wendy

Hi Robert, you've been busy, me too. We sure have fun. The coasters are neat but they need to go on the wall instead of getting hidden by a glass. Wendy

Thanks Wendy! There's no law that says you can't frame them! :D

Have taken so much work for hire the past year, progress on this painting slowed to a crawl (and subsequently less posts here)....trying to get some work done on it before my next deadlines!

But! Part of that work falls into Tiki territory! Look for an announcement soon!

Happy to announce I'll be making another appearance at Disney's Wonderground Gallery, this time at Disney World's Downtown Disney. I'll be debuting my new Pele painting and vinyl figure.

If you're in the Orlando area stop by and say hi!

Thanks Wendy! Very kind of you!

Here are the steps for PELE ABLAZE. And remember, if you're in the Orlando area March 6th or 7th, drop by Marketplace Co-Op in Downtown Disney where I'll be signing prints of this painting!

Here's PELE ABLAZE all framed up!

Looks GREAT and that frame is a hum-dinger,Robert!
This should be snatched up quickly by a lucky patron!
Two Disney events in less than 6 months......Well deserved,Sir!

Love the steps. Wendy

Beautiful!

Thanks Ken, Wendy and Joshua! Appreciate the comments and the kind words!

Had a great time at the new Wonderground Gallery in Disney World’s Marketplace Co-Op located in Downtown Disney this weekend. Thanks to all those who came out and picked up prints and postcards of my Pele, Rongo and Rocketeer paintings. The original Pele and Rongo as well as the Pele custom painted Vinylmation figure are still available as of this writing.

If anyone is interested in prints or the originals and can’t make it out to either Wondergound Gallery location, you can still purchase these items by calling Disney Merchandise Guest Services at 877-560-6477 and pressing Option #2.
