Yeah I know I am Blaggin'

Blaggin' is the act of havin' a blog but laggin' when it comes to posting new content for it. It is not because I am lazy by any stretch. I just been super busy workin' full time at Island Art & Screenprinting, trying to settle into life on Kauai and get in as much surfing as I can. The Chongolian Raffle was an amazing sucess and I think I have finally got all the lucky winners their goodies. Again, MAHALO to everybody who donated and bought tickets.

I have also been very busy getting new art created for the Tiki magazine Art Show in San Diego.



This event is going to be a blast. I am really lookin' forward to hangin' out with my buddies and finally getting to meet Tiki Chris in person for the first time. Chris and I worked on the Kamapua'a series together a few years ago but had never met in person. We will be meetin' up with him in San Diego along with Tikiracer. After the show we will be taking a Tiki road trip North to the San Francisco Bay Area for the Tiki Weekend VII! Although I wont be able to make all the days, I will definitely be there for one or two evenings or tropical ambiance and mischief. Hope to see some of you there lampin' in your favorite aloha wear.

Also, I have been tinkering around with Chongovision over at Stickam.com. Which is looking very likely to be the next step in the evolution of Coconut Wired. Yes Coconut Wired will be in Chongovision in the near future!

So keepin' very busy and still trying my best to keep up with all my projects.
