what up with the "private collections".
does that mean they're owned by folks in the military? maybe stationed on the island of Guadeloupe?
or does it mean that they keep the collections in their private parts?
inquiring minds what to know!

Maaan!
i sure loathe even more than despise these vermin-covered unedjumicated arteesto hotshots
who just look at the pretty pictures
and don't even bother to read the text
and learn about the content....
from page one
about 2 paragraphs in
located on the very first post of this gallery thread....
and i quote.....
Quote:

underneath all of that
if there is "private collection"
it means it was either bought
or i love it so much i kept it
or the wife snagged it... |

You really should start asking for money
for your paintings
instead of reeses pieces and rat poison
then you can write "private collection" under their titles!
there's you're answer mr. funnypants
get off TC and skitter back to your paint cubicle
there's a BEYOND THE REEF show deadline
and that siren you've been working on
MUST be finished and beautiful VERY SOON!!!!!!!!!
Mike-No Tikiyaki sign-ups.....they're imaginary! they're drawings,silly!
Wess....
Thanks for chiming in
and being a part of the actual creation

Ken I love that you can do variations on the same theme and yet they all look different. I want to be a real artist when I grow up

Mahalos Mad Dog!
in fact, if you scroll back up
you'll see that I've added a couple more that were buried behind some
ones and zeroes...
Variations
thinking really hard
and becoming that character for a moment
and feeling how that character would feel
or how a society of these would evolve and express themselves
Thinking beyond the parameters
but still paying attention to the original intent
sort of anchoring there
and floating outside the space-station...
That's the fun!
Creating a world
and then occupying it with characters,flora,fauna,and STUFF!
it's like an eco-friendly Sims!

You're already an artist,Mike!
it's the Growing Up part that concerns me...
talo-don't give up... Do a little bit everyday
but only if you love it...
You'll get better everyday!
Keep disciplined!

I would Die of shock if I were to live in your mind just for one day, even on a Slow one! Where and How do you find the time and energy to create this Incredible stuff And keep your Sanity? (Oh Yeah,, forget the sanity question,heh) And Then you STILL make time to Post all this beauty for us to see.

Aloha TC Ohana!
man! What a week!
Finally got the studio cleaned and organized enough to begin working again!
And just finished a TOP SECRET job
that i can share with you next week....
patience is a virtue...
Well, this weekend
i shall share some more of my PNG (Papua New Guinea)inspired artwork!
The rawness/power/and bold naive graphic sensibility
belies a raw genius within a more primitive socieity than our own....
and honestly...
their skullracks carry a strange attraction
The figure looks comical and happy
yet it's adorned with skulls!
go figger...
pennjones-Thank you! There's more! Enough to keep you spellbound for years to come! I've done a few glow-in-the -dark pieces...Sometimes without telling the patron! heeheeee!
talo ka-Mahalos!That's actually one of my favorites in the
cannibal contemplative series that grew outward from that!
I love how his tears are just flying off his face!
Clarita! I wish i could fly ALL of my friends to this Nov 6th show....
Each one of you has brought the gift of love,inspiration,and laughter
to my art-hermit life
and for that I'm grateful....
Much Aloha and Hugs to YOU!
Benzart-Look who's talking,old friend!
You're a virtual carving factory yourself there!
It's so great to be able to share and exchange art and ideas with all youse driven crazyfolk!

so now's your chance to actually get a print
instead of a dumb original....
Second painting

so when we had the Batcave Studio Artjam on Saturday

(to be joined later by Hinano Paul huggybear ,croe FOM Queen,and Stacy Sleepyhead for a late night visit! JOY!)
it was time to get that thing finished!
