MAhalos Aloha Station, Senor Spermy and Tiki Shark!
if you live in So Cal, you MUST head down to the Tiki Magazine art show at Planet Rooth Gallery. The gallery is in the North-Park area of San Diego. the show is SICK...really amazing array of talent assembled.
here are the paintings i have in the show. Now go buy one to replace that tawdry Ruzic painting in your tiki bar!!!!
for images of the show, check my show gallery:

tawdry?
since when did you learn all these fancy big words,smarty boy?
tawdry....
did you even use that in the right context?
great batch at the tikimag show!
those 4 have an agitational animated kind of lighting..
almost like they're powered by the force and contrast of the lighting....
love the texture and flowers/leaves on the big one!
Noice!
Very tawdry.....
eh.

The full-pager is awesome - it's an ad, but it includes it's page number! I like that your style is absolutely unmistakeable... that's RARE and then some. The way you do wahini really stands out. You must like-a da ladees.

saw the bowling pin in person...
someone's gonna pick that up and bring it home!
Joisey!!!
and the trashcan is waaay cool!
the four eyes and the ledge and the butt make it!
send that tiki to a dentist!
you're one motivated kook!
If they don't sell it
you can store all your paintings in it!
tawdry AND sticky!

thanks brother. the funny thing is that f-ing bin IS sticky...for some reason that G.D. "Varithane" spray-varnish was still tacky when i dropped it off after 4 hours drying...TAWDRY is great, but i do NOT like sticky art!
Maha to the Lo, t
