Aloha

I’m currently locked in the studio, busy painting for my upcoming Tiki Modern exhibit opening Saturday May 18th, 5-8pm at the George Billis Gallery. But I thought I’d give everyone a little preview of one of the paintings going into the show: the now shuttered Don the Beachcomber in Huntington Beach. See this in person, plus many more, when I unveil all the work next month!

Tiki Modern Exhibit

Currently, I'm up to my knees working on paintings for my next major exhibit: Tiki Modern!  This show will focus on how the midcentury Modernism I typically paint extended into the tiki world back in the 1940s through 1960s.  It's by no means the definitive tiki show, but mainly tiki architecture and design that have played a part in my life growing up in Southern California.  From Shelter Island in San Diego to dive bars in Los Angeles, I thought it was time to cover this facet of Modernism that has had such a long-lasting impact on our culture. Please join me at the unveiling of this new series on Saturday May 18th, 5-8pm, at the George Billis Gallery, Los Angeles. Extra points for throwing on a Hawaiian shirt/dress!
