Nice paintings Dawn!
PS
You left out the second "C" in the word "architeCtural" in your painting text. Another suggestion would be to use the word "preserve" rather than "ensure" in the second paragraph.
Cheers!

thanks for the proofread! Unfortunately a handmade watercolor has no spell check.
I have only made about 5 color copies of that one . I will do it over, hopefully better quality, and I will make the corrections. At first I just read your post and went HUH? whats he talking about, then I went back to the last page and figured it out. I wish I had a proof reader here at home, but the cats and dog wont do that for me.
The more papers I have to write for school the better I get at the Bullsh###ing. I'm rusty its been 20 yrs since college. You saved me from an embarrassing moment, good thing I haven't handed it in as an assignment!
Vampiress, Thank you so much, I spend so much time in my own little version of Tiki, that sometimes I wounder if anyone else gets my vision,
Unfortunately Jahmbi my bus doesn't go any where right now. I hit a really big pothole in the dark on my way to dinner at the Dogbytes home, and the next day something important broke. I heard it break, went uh oh and got myself off the freeway, Whew, Now hes just parked in the carport until I can crawl under there and take a look. Jahmbi does have a brand new engine less than one yr. and I take very good care of him, he will be on the road again soon speeding around town, I have a hard time driving slow, I drive the hell out of that bus and loooovvveee it. He's my special Jahmbi! Dawn

LOL...I love how you named him Jahmbi....so cute. I have never named my cars...I guess cause they don't have any personalities...they are beasts of burden for me. But you have inspired me, so I will think of a name....since she is really gold...any ideas?
Take good care of Jahmbi and give him a wave of good vibe from me.

Hi artists!
Always this time of year I sort of hide out from the world and re-group for whats next. I still have a big pile of unfinished pieces from last year. including some really cool totems. Coming soon I promise. But I found a website for self publishing and I think I will put out my book this year. Its a copyright free design book for artists of tapa designs. I did all the drawings about 12 yrs ago and just put it away. Dawn

here are a few new pieces. the first three were sold at my holiday sale and I just snapped a couple of pix before they went out the door. Pardon the glare.
last one needs re cropping will post later oops!
The next two are large watercolors that I did in 98. I've been trying to get old artwork documented.

Hi tiki kids!
Ive been digging through the stacks of paintings I have stashed under my bed and came up with these watercolors. after not seeing them for several years it was like they were new again. Im going to frame them up and list them for sale on eBay today.
Ive got some great sketches going for new paintings and am in the process of scanning all of the original drawings of my Tapa Design book. so hopefully soon I will be able to make that available. Blah blah Blah , anyway heres some art to look at. Thanks bunches, Dawn

Thanks LLT, you are defiantly my cheering section. Im dying to get my desk cleared off and start some new paintings. Im currently working on some upholstery projects for the Rivieras. I was hoping to finish up today, but maybe tomorrow. There will be good before and after pics.
As I look through all of the art Ive posted here its neat to see the slight style changes, and with the older pieces Im glad that I still find them beautiful. Of course as an artist I like to think that my skill level increases with each piece.
