Reese, great work. I love all your work, but my top two pic's are your shrunken head and the Voudon.  I love the colors in the shrunken head and I can just picture it in a room with black lights. And the Voudon looks and reminds me of the great Crazy Al. Love the colors in this one too and all the fine little details. But I'm  as to why in the world would you feel insecure about your art?

Spermy,Tikiduddy, Jungle Trader and Tikithomas thanks for the kind words.
Big Kahuna, PM me on the shirts. I'm still working on prints of various things. Anything in particular you're interested in?
Tikipaka thanks, Crazy Al told me if I'd put a beard with bones in it on that painting he'd sue me for copyright infringement.
Oh, I'm not insecure. I was just joking around.
Thanks again for all the support.

Matt -- Your artwork is really cool! Wish I had an ounce of drawing talent. But I'm getting really good at stick figures.

Thanks guys. The Voudon painting made me think of those 1970's monster magazine comics. They always had adds for paintings on the back covers that had weird, devil at the graveyard or ghost in a cage images. Drug fallout.
Thanks again.

Finished 2 more paintings. To steal Clysdalle's words "they're not tiki but I thought you might like them". Just feeling the Halloween spirit or something.
"Nice Evening" Acrylic on masonite It's about 19"x19"
"Demon Rum" Acrylic on panel. It's 6 and a half feet tall by 23" or so.
Like I said, not tiki, but Happy Halloween everybody!
Thanks for looking.
Cheers.

That Demon Rum would look sweet on a big ol' Chevy Van!!!
We should do a painting jam like the oki oki, but expand it to painting, clay pinstripping.....

I like'em, Matt, especially Demon Rum. I can really feel the struggle!
How's that tiki coming, that you were carving at the lagoon chop?
