Doug I have always been a huge fan of artists who wrap their images around a canvas or make sure that the edges of the canvas lend some interest to the piece as a whole.
Really loved these when I first saw you had posted them on here and I cant wait to see them on Sunday. Glad you are bringing them.

Mahalo to everyone who stopped by (and to buy). It was baking out there, but the Ohana was not to be missed. Big props to Mike, Suzanne, Jessica and the rest of the FI Crew. Good work, y'all.
Oh, and...

And I made some framed maps made from vinyl, fuzzy car upholstery and Naugahyde. They are inspired by those vintage maps from travel agencies of south seas islands, and are all three dimensional and stuff!

Wow, the turn out was spectacular! This certainly was our biggest and best Parking Lot Sale to date. Right at 2pm we had a good size crowd. By 4pm, the place was jumping and it stayed that way through the final set of the Lee Vilensky Trio!!
A huge thanks to the vendors, some of whom traveled a great distance just to be there, for making this all possible. The selection of goods was mind-blowing and seeing "sold" signs on all these wonderful pieces was heart warming!
Mahalo to all who made it out there and a huge thanks to my managers and staff, who effortlessly quenched the thirst of the masses, without even breaking a sweat!
Here are some pics:
The FI parking lot gets transformed
The King gave us all his blessing
So cute!! And that Tiki Bob doll aint bad either!
The Taco Truck arrives!

The Lee Vilensky Trio kept the revelry going till the very end
