These are just what I call"stream of consciousness" (..sounds like a great drink name by the way) sketches. These doodles are really just part of my design process and I am usually the only one to see these. They lead to other things in my paintings or mug designs. Anyway..have fun viewing these. They actually begin to "talk" if you view these for 30 seconds, take in 3 shots of fine 151 rum and stand on one leg (peg legs go to the head of the line...so we can watch!). P.S. I was just asked here if these are available... These were sold to a collector interested in my concept art a few weeks ago. Thought I would add this drawing too since I accidentally uploaded it to firefly with the others. This is the line drawing of another painting to be in my "gecko" series of paintings. People in Hawaii can't seem to get enough of this series so I am doing a couple more, then taking a break from this subject for a few months. Kinna Gecko'ed out! This one is titled..(Thanks to Max at the STOR's endless wit after a Few Pacifica's) "Purple Projectiles off the Port side" I got this idea after consuming a pineapple fruit boat for lunch at Tiki's Restaurant in Waikiki. I picked up my chopstix, a few napkins and some leftover grapes and constructed this Pirate ship out of the stuff on my table(to the dismay of the waitress who evil eyed me for "playing with my food"). I took a fast snapshot to remind me of the idea and then drew this picture of Hawaiian gecko's amidst a sea battle in miniature..plastic spoon cannon, captain waiving his plastic cocktail sword with a leaf hat and twister tie cumber bun. Anyway...this one will go to paint shortly. Hope it brings a few smiles. If interested, you can see the entire gecko series on my website. Mahalo!!! ~~THOR [ Edited by: THOR's 2007-03-24 08:23 ]
