Who wants to own a piece of Tiki history?
That's right, the paintings from the Tiki Oasis 8 Go Go dancer stages are now for sale. I'm taking any reasonable offer. Obviously shipping is an issue. Come on folks! You know you want something large scale and crazy cool. What better souvenir could one get from Tiki Oasis?
Post any questions, comments or statements of ridicule.
Dancer not included.

Both are acrylic on wood panel, scroll sawed borders.
I'm trying to get the third one done but time is running out!

Couple other paintings to add here.
This was the last in the Send in the Clowns series for Dave's Not Home's show a while back.
This was for Mariepalooza "Zombies Served Here" I have no idea who ended up with it.
This is for MP's NorCal Haunted Hotrods and Mystery Machines show.
"The Flying VonDutchman"
Sketch I'm working on for a new t-shirt and possible painting. Big Shawn Warcott influence on this one.
I'm actually in the middle of another piece I've been promising Polynesiac for what must be years. I'll get pics up once I get some real progress going.
Glad to be back at the brushes a little more. Gotta admit LLT and Big Toe have given me some inspiration of late.
Peace with every step.

I'll bite: Matt I think of you as a carver and forget that you are a gifted illustrator/painter as well. Your Flying Dutchman turned out great and you cannibal pot is looking, well, "perky"!
You were probably looking for constructive criticism from one of the real artist - sorry, you got me instead

I ain't no real artist either, but I know what I like and I likes me some reesenik! This modest guy just oozes with talent. Sit him down with a sharpie and within minutes he's finished a finknik inspired tiki piece! seriously!
The flying von dutchman is one of the best! I've always liked how you cut the wood to fit the piece. I think that's a unique touch.
I don't care how long it takes, I'm just stoked to know that I have a reesenik on the way!
Glad you're hitting the brushes again, I look forward to what you have next!

MDM, thanks for the kind words. All input is much appreciated.
Polynesiac, thank you also for the kind words. I got a good start on your painting and now my stupid camera busted! It's basically the same as the sketch I showed you.
I'm glad people liked The Flying VonDutchman. It was fun to paint.
Peace with every step.

The Flying Von Dutchman is a HOOT!
I love how he's rolling along
and just shoots his cannon
BAM!
This new cannibal one is coming along nicely
It's interesting to see your drawing style
after only seeing your paintings
a lot more frantic....
like a streetchicken!

So here are some paintings I had at Oasis.
This is "Tiki Toast" acrylic on found board. Still available.
This is "Lunch?" which is still available.
And this is "There Goes The Lodge" which DJ Jack Hughes now owns.
Thanks for looking.
