I liked the look of that tiki too. The next best thing to owning that tiki is owning that painting of that tiki. Your painting skills never looked better. SOme time off was probably just what you needed.

DUDE!!! that was real fast! We were talking about this on New Years...
Really great painting - I agree with LLT, the you nailed the colors and "feel" of the what I wanted to convey in the picture - only WAY better. Plus, you made my back yard look way cooler than it really is!
It was grand seeing you and Polly at fores...er...New Years.
Polly more...
I'm honored Kirbs...that's the second carving of mine that you've painted!
Check your PM home-slice!

Very nice,Kirbs!
I love his doleful expression,sailing along,feeling the breeze..
Your lighting and shading is giving this one a nice dimensional feel
and a sense of calm, not clutter
in the way you chose what elements to render.
and the black outlines on everything,even the moon,
throws in a flat,graphic feel to a vast landscape
thus establishing the world as playful and imaginary.
Love his straw hat!
Better than trying to balance a topknot ! 
Keep em coming!

You definitely have your own thing going, this almost looks like a watercolor or gouache if I didn't know you used acrylics. There's always great expression and a sense of fun in all your works.
