I had this big 'ol "Hawaii-Ween" art show here in Hawaii at the Wyland Gallery in Kona, (I know, strange place for a "low-brow Tiki Art Show") and there was this special request for a commission for a painting from some art patron big-wig folks, the art agent at the gallery went on line to show me the "Tiki Room" these tiki tribe folks were making...and how proud they were of the tiki they had special made for it...that it was made by one of the best tiki carvers in America... I didn't even look at the screen and I said "Oh, you mean Crazy Al?" - and she said ... "Yes! How'd you know that?" and I said, "He is the best. Where do you think I get all my inspiration for my tiki designs from?"

So... I forgot to say that years ago, just as I was getting into painting tiki art, I was on Tiki Central looking at a Bamboo Ben masterpiece of a "Tiki Room" and it had a Crazy Al tiki in it. And some Mark Ryden prints on the wall. I had a secret hope that one day I maybe my tiki art could hang in such an amazing tiki room, along side a Crazy Al tiki. Wow, that might happen now.... so I better not blow this commission!

Way to Go TikiShark! i told you you had it going on!!
Here is a way to send some money to the Am Red Cross who is pouring money into the East Coast
the first Ebay Don the Beachcomber Barrels!! and No 1 going to the A-R-C!!!
Rum Barrel No. 1 ! Kona Sunset Glaze
This barrel lacks the details on the bottom of mug, but is offered 100%! to the Am. Red Cross fund raising efforts!!
I’m not sure how it all works, but the founds will all go to the Red Cross via Ebay policies.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/110973058841?ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
These are some Fantastic 1 of 1 Mugs!
Unfortunately Tiki Farm’s manufacturer in Mexico, that sent me the unglazed bisque, used a different material then I’m familiar working with.
These unique Barrels only available from me will have crazing/cackle glaze on the inside of the piece.
This may or may not be food safe and may discolor with use.
Also, a few bisque did not have the detail I was hoping for, but just a few.
Only 30! Crazy Barrels will be offered and only by myself.
These 30 are lager then the Production Run of 500 available at Don the Beachcomber Huntington Beach CA
Mine are 5 1/4 inches high holding 24 ounces!!

these are for my personal fund raising...

Hot Damn! That Smuggler's Cove mug is a BEAUTY! Love that sculpt!
Sadly, I don't see myself sailing to the cove for another year at least Hope they still have one left somewhere down in the bilge

Just popping in to make sue everyone coming to the Cove on the 9th sees this:
There will be only 48 of these limited edition mugs EVER. Al is bringing 32 of them to Smuggler's Cove on the 9th, and the rest will be sold via eBay. Here's an important update: Al has decided that the 32 at Smuggler's Cove will be sold via silent auction. Now there's no need to sleep on the sidewalk or rush to be first in line! The auction will start at 5pm and end promptly at 7pm. Come in, relax, and take your time perusing all of the unique mugs. Staring bids will vary based on level of detail, so there are options in a range of prices. This is your only chance to get these at Smuggler's Cove, so we'll see you on Sunday!
Mahalo everyone!
