Your Daily Tiki God

This painting is really just for fun.

I spent the day molding bits and pieces of interesting stuff around the studio, in preparation for future collage works. I even took two molds of my hands in two very different poses. That was tough, given the fact that the only other person in my studio was my dog, and he can't help me in these projects.

By the end of the afternoon I had tiny female torsos, horse heads, bits of rope and shells and more coins. And the two hands. I'll have to see how they come together later.

Then I had some time before having to return home, so I did this little painting. It reminds me of the shark gods one sees in Hawaii.

Acrylic paint, velvet and abalone shell on paper. 5 x 10" (13 x 25cm.)
