this is the one tiki image that will be included in my Decemeber 9th show at Roq La Rue...if you're interested in owning this piece you should contact the gallery and have your name put on the list...i have a feeling because i am "not painting tiki anymore" that this one will go first...thanks for looking!

I had a double look at that tiki - VERY happy I would say. Nice painting kooche. Love the style of it. Is it just painted onto a wood backing?

Man, that is one awesome piece of tiki art - not traditional mind you - but high quality interpretive work. If this is what some pople on TC mean by extending the tiki vision - then I would agree this a great example. You made my day with this one, even though I'm not usually moved by the modern forms. Actually, I've liked your work for a long time - but this one is just over the top.

thanks you guys...yeah i haven't tapped the subject of tiki as a fertile male yet...this is the second one i have painted anatomically correct ... as a cartoonist i don't shy from any subject...thanks again y'all!
hewey...yeah it's gouache on wood panel...for tiki it's really complimentary i think...but 12 of the 20 pieces for my show will be like this on the "wood"...sorry i know... LAME pun!

This is so good! I really enjoy your work. I didn't see the "anatomically correct" part until I read these replies, funny!

You had me laughing on that one.
Jimmy's real wood and the twins are blue.
Too funny.
Great work.

Good one, Miles! Like the simplicity. The style reminds me of midcentury "twin" wall art pieces, you could do a matching size "brother" piece where a haole flips his lid over a native wahine.

Once again, pure dy-no-mite! Definitely Tiki, Definitely Low Brow... but your choices of what to pick and chose and the details you integrate are so uniquely you. It's refreshing to see something stand out so well among it's crowd of lowbrow contemporaries. Kudos to you Miles, you're pure inspiration!

Miles, you should have been at my slide show at Tiki Taix last Friday: The "Jesus fountain" painting that I photographed on a monastery ceilig in Bavaria is the predecessor to this!
Oh, and you'll flip over the bejewelled saint skeletons! Will show you soon.
Hope this does not ruffle any feathers with folks here who are not on the Juxtapoz curve. Believe me everybody, authentic Catholic art was just as weird.
