the ball is rolling but i gotta admit it won't roll very far - my next show is about the history and heritage of the state of California - i have been doing a shitload of research and it's pretty incredible and inspiring as can be
tiki holds a special place in my heat but not in my wallet - y'all are smart enough to not be materialistic and i respect that to no end - my involvment in the Tiki show at Roq La Rue gallery is a THANKS to Otto and Kirsten for getting me on the gallery walls where i want show - La Luz 07
the black light piece is just a mess aroung with fluro paints and multi media - $2000 as are all of my paintings that are 2X2'
thanks for the feedback everyone!

I know I'm only judging this painting based on a picture of it and having never seen it in person,....but this painting is awesome!! great work!!
some members wouldn't consider this a legit assessment as I have not seen the real painting up close....keep up the good work!! I would like to purchase some of your work down the line sometime.

Kooche, great painting!! Your work is amazing. I just started trying to paint with acrylics a bit in 05 and this December I tried gluing some jewel eyes on pieces and using glitter glue too. The first time I used the glitter I found it to be easy to knock off a piece as it's brittle after drying, since then I'm using superglue and putting glitter directly on top of that. If u don't mind sharing info. with a novice, I was wondering what kind of glitter/glue you are using on this piece?
My head feels like the tiki head guy in your piece after looking at sum of your paintings, mindblowing!

Wow, you really developed that! It was cool seeing just the tiki on a white background and then seeing where you went with it. This is my favorite place to look for great paintings, thx for posting this.

Beautiful Kooche!! I love the colors and symmetry of this one. One of my favorites so far. Is this a commission or will it be available to the Ohana? Hmmmmmm?
PS- Hoped to meet you @ Oasis. Was sure I'd recognize you grooving to APE's dueling steel guitars but didn't see you. Maybe the rum fogged my vision!
