Aloha Friends, Here's 7 paintings that I painted for Hukilau. I've had a couple e-mails asking about the paintings, so I'd thought others may be interested. Thanks for looking, hope you like 'em.

"Campy in Butano" 24"x12" sold
"Tongaroa and Hiva in search of Papua" 12"x20" sold
"Bumatay" 24"x12" sold
"Birds Birds" 20"x24" sold

I LOVE THOSE!
They are very well done. I like the way you have the palm trees incorporated into the edge of the paintings. I can see you illustrating books with this style. They each have a story going on.

I dig these drawings! You have a very unique graphic style. Very cool!
I would love to collect these as postcards, (partially because that's all I could afford right now).

Great work, very whimsical. Your style reminds me a bit of Ronald Searle but is totally unique.

These are wonderful. They actually remind me of Edward Gorey (on a tropical vaction) minus the woeful captions. Very clever, indeed.

i'm about ready to wet myself, tanks everybody. Chiki Tiki, Give me a call again and stop by, I'll be out back carving as usual. Post cards, i'm on it! But I think I'll leave the corporation out of my pocket and have them printed somewheres myself... (i'll probably end up using Cafe tho')
