Aloha!
Slacksferret~ Thanks! Prints Yes! The plan is that this will be the first painting to be reproduced as a (realitively) inexpensive giclee on paper. I'd be really thrilled and honored to be hanging in your Tiki Bar!
JPMDOGBig Mahaloz my art making pirate buddy!
Grog
Yes, the triple reflected surface really changed the shape and 3-D feel of the mug. Thanks so much for noticing!
Isleconch~ Mahalo! The girl, she's coming up soon..... I hope. I'm such a weird painter, I usually paint something twice anyways! I'm seeking to stream line my process, but I'm sorta' OCD and nervous about painting still, so things get worked and then reworked. Perhaps I'll relax as time goes on.
SAM!~ Big Mahaloz! I was very excited when I found out I could do a little reflection of your cool style in this one! Thanks for the inspiration!
Grog~ HA! That's actually really cool looking! Gives me an idea for a tiki jam! Maybe I could have Kenny design a tiki for my next painting, and I could render it in my style.
Tiki Fool~ Oh yeah, baby! There's a LOT of low brow art in the world that has been influenced by that film! (I just saw a freaking amazing new painting by XNO that had the gill man snuk into it.) So glad I could move you to watch that classic!


The painting as it stands now. Mere days to finish it!

Here's a close up on the floating refreshment... Would you swig outa this?

So, lots going on here, I'm pulling some long days to get enough painting time in. Next few days will be important!
