Knockout stuff, Dawn. Any topnotch Tiki bar would be a little better with some of your decor pieces.

wow thanks Dirk.
so its like 4AM and as usual Im up in the middle of the night. I dont have the light on so Im typing by the light of the TV, AND as most of you have noticed Im a terrible typer when I CAN see. so what I actually typed was " qoq thanks dork!" hahahahahah ow hahahaha ow
OK All week long I've been trying to get things ready for International Tiki Day. Woofmutt and I are having a tiki yard sale here at the Bamboo Grove. Ive got a heap of yard sale vintageness in my livingroom and in the diningroom I have all my new pieces of decor piled up waiting for frames. So heres some pics of what I managed to get framed after dinner last night and barely got photos of before sunset.
All of these pieces are 13" x 24" made with free miss tint house paint on scavenged wood and masonite

HEY Imagine my surprise to see my thread on the front page! Ive been watching it slowly move down to the bottom of page 2. Sad to say no new art just yet. Ive been busy with end of summer chores and doing some redecorating around the house. Moving furniture around and re hanging all the art to make room for new pieces. over all its looking better each day. I'm on the big rush to get the siding put back on my house after adding an extra room this summer.
But back to the art>>>>> I have spent the last 3 week researching reference material for the next batch of paintings Sort of trying to pinpoint and refine a look that only seems to exist in my brain. So soon I will have new things to share and add to my website.
I'm also building the website for the museum project. All in all I have accomplished many things this year. ( I"m in reflective mode because its almost my birthday)
So Thanks bead tiki for the bump Dawn

Hey friends, I have been busy this fall working on projects around my house and haven't transitioned into making new art. I just want to be outside as much as possible before the permanent rain comes for the next 6 months. BUUUT I just moments ago finished the sign for the Bamboo Grove of Westwood. I will be mounting the sign and the bamboo to the fence in the back . ( that's where guests enter the vacation rental) So here's some shots of the sign and close ups of the free hand lettering. and then I put all the pieces on the lawn and took pics from the deck. so you can get an idea of how it will look once its mounted on the fence. 
depending on how the sign goes over with the neighbors..... the next part will be to put up some plywood cut out tikis on the outside of the fence.

Cool looking sign Dawn, are you Sure you followed the Typography Rules for Font separation, some of them there things look a bit far apart for MY RULE book!  You Know I'm lying, it looks greater thanI could do. Thanks for showing it .
