Congrats Robert! Great job all the way around. Nice little details like the reflections in the window. Now what's the next project? 
PS that Hatter dude looks pretty creepy!

Thanks Mike!
Next up is another non-Tiki painting. I'm really hoping this one goes to the Harold Golen show at the ModMiami event next March. It's a 50's sci-fi pulpy painting....you can see my sketch and follow steps here:

I'm sure I'll be taking Tiki breaks during the process...maybe work on the new cigar box...and those will be posted here!

Been busy working on a pulp-ish science fiction painting and was struck with an idea I quickly sketched out. Don't know if this will be my next painting, but I thought I'd share it here anyway. I'm really enjoying going through pulp magazine covers, I love that style and I hope to incorporate that into this sketch when I get around to painting it!
A title came to me, as I sketched the idea out, which I think will stick: THIS TIKI GOES NOWHERE!

Hi All,
Below is an actual screen shot of my iphone app which I hope will be released soon. It's basically a book if my art, with sketches and finished works. Also included is ASK THE TIKI GOD. With a simple shake of the device, or a press of the skull, the Tiki God will answer all those pesky Yes or No question you just don't have time to answer yourself! More soon!

Just got in from a visit to Mai Kai where they announced the winners of their logo contest. Unfortunately my submitted designs (see below) were not picked.
I also picked up a carved rendition of my DO NOT MOCK THE TIKI GOD illustration. Carved by TC's AlohaStation. I think he did a great job capturing the feel and character of my illustration! Here it is:

Hi All!
Finished up 2 non-Tiki paintings that I am very happy with! Both can be seen at the www.zerostreet.com home page. One is a Fez'd Groucho Marx and the other is a Frazetta/scifi pulp cover inspired Man Operated-Robot-Destroys City-To Get Girl painting! Check em out if you can!
I will be vending at the 2011 Hukilau in June, hope to see many of you there! So I expect that from now till then I will be working on only Tiki related artwork like this new cigar box painting seen below. The box measure 17x7 inches and is about 5 inches deep.
Also my iPhone app should be available very soon! It contains 45 pages of my artwork plus a nifty ASK THE TIKI GOD game! All for a measly .99cents!
