Hula Hideaway Art
"Rocking the Island"
🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿
Limited edition of 200 prints.
This scene I painted for the 2016 Tiki Oasis Art Show. The theme of the show was "Monster island", celebrating the original monsters of the silver screen age—but imagine them in Hawaiian shirts, sipping on rum drinks.
Inspired by a behind-the-scenes photo from the set of the original 1954 film Gojira, I asked myself: what if it was not a nuclear weapon test that was responsible for the creation of Godzilla—but an overproof rum accident at the local tiki bar?*

A bit about me:
__________________
The Hula Hideaway is my humble little Tiki Bar I built in our backyard. Tucked away between palm trees and bamboo, you can see its roofline peek out only if you take a real close look. This is my creative place and art studio when I am not experimenting with rum cocktails. And it is the inspiration for the artwork you find here.
I am a Designer, Creative Director and Artist. I love Tiki, Hawaiian shirts and Polynesian Pop. Tiki Oasis is the event that got me hooked from the very first moment, and the history of tiki culture fascinates me.
Combine that with my 30 year love affair with Photoshop and shake it up—and you get colorful and rum-soaked Tiki art.
