I've put down my wacom stylus and picked up my brushes and got down to some artwork "Pre-'95" style! (before I got my first macintosh with photoshop!) These are all in progress but I'm really excited to show them so I'm letting the cat out of the bag! Warning: these pictures are really low rez and over saturated but I can't help myself!
36X36
A direct encounter with this moai....
24X36
"Kandinsky discovers rum"
We've all been in this place! At least, in our minds...
22X28
This one's a little standoffish
30X40
He's seems happy with the results......
22X28
Another confrontational one! how nice!
I'm still reworking all of these but I think enough of the idea is there! More to come!

These are great. I work on the box as well, and its fun to get away from from it. Keep up the good work.

Thanks a lot everybody! The positive vibe is a great feeling! I'm glad I got back to my roots...... it IS so nice to step away from the box! Here's an update of the moai in profile. The problem with being so psyched to get to painting is that I just went and started painting on an old canvas that had all this texture that doesn't work for this subject...it was really distracting me so I took some 50 grit sandpaper and sanded this mother down and destroyed it a little knowing I'd be much happier in the long run! So here is an update with some more accurate landscape features too..still not done, but getting close!....got some others in the wings too. Hope you like!

They're all real nice. but I think I like the style of the 22x28 confrontational one the best. You gotta name these bad bays.

Top Shelf work mate - I like the rough style - works well with tikis and is something you can call your own style. I am new to Tiki Central and have found these guys to be very helpful and supportive.

Thanks tiki beat! Lot of supportive people in the ol' TC! Here's an update of an earlier sketch....still workin' it...I've bouncing around on these 5 or 6 paintings for the past month, so the updates are sporadic at best!
