I'm really struggling with this guy! Hope it works out! I straightened a bunch of stuff that needed straightening and am adding more details, a vintage Mai Kai menu, embellishing his fez etc! More soon!
BTW, I have prints available in the marketplace forum, with a sneak peek one post above this one!

The "optical illusion table" is fixed. Looks sharp Robert.

Here's "THE GREETER" Acrylic on Canvas 6x6 inches. Just needed to knock that out! Lester is kicking my butt!

Just finished a non-Tiki painting. It's a 6x6 inch Howard The Duck. Even though it is non-Tiki I thought I'd post a link in case anyone would like to see it:

Tomorrow I get back to Lester!

Howard is haggardly dapper and the Greeter so moody and mysterious. 6x6, just little guys

Thanks Mike! The Greeter is for a gallery show I was invited to. The "theme" is small and affordable art, hence the size. Howard is a gift to our daughters pediatrician. He loves ducks, especially Howard. He's one of "those" doctors, you know, duck tie, duck on his stethoscope...

SHAZAM!!
I love the "faux velvet" piece, and the one that you're struggling with looks fine - if it still was bothering me, I'd put it in a drawer for a month and jump on it hard then!
More pieces on black please.

Thanks Robb! As I mentioned to you in a PM your work was the inspiration for The Greeter! I definitely intend to do more!

"Greeter" - now that's pretty cool. I like the simple moody vibe off of that one.
"Lester" - What can I say other than he must be pickled by now, sitting at the Mai Kai this long!
LOVE THEM BOTH...
