Check out my "Tiki Runner", Acrylic on Canvas 12 X 18(ish)
Done for a benefit auction to help with medical costs for legendary OC surfer/shaper Midget Smith.
What's with the big dangly-down tongues?? Freud would have a field day!
Alohas, bT

Please enjoy my "Ruby's Dilemma", Acrylic on canvas. 18 X 24(ish)
Inspired by the intoxicating Miss Ruby Devore.
I plan to do a limited run art print that will hopefully debut at the Moon Eyes Xmas Party in Irwindale on 12/8.
Mahalos for looking. bT

These are fantastic BT, chalk up another vote for "bigger is better" - there's a tattoo on the tiki's arm but I can't read it! I hope we get to see all the stuff from the upcoming show.

Heya BigToe!
"Ruby's Dilemma" is my favorite, I love his stance and the girl's eyes are really pretty!
Rawk on!

These are two really cool paintings. The tiki is great and nice detail on Ruby. I'd love to see it closer as well.

Aloha Bigtoe!
GREAT stuff! Really expressive! I LOVE tiki runner!
It's sort a fink/tiki art mixing together into a new cool hybrid!
