what's on the horizon...

This is an art blog where I will be adding new drawings and paintings of Hula girls and Tiki Gods every week, sometimes more, along with related videos, Hawaiiana and tons of Tiki trivia. So crack open a cold one and enjoy the show.

"LONO" ( The Hawaiian Tiki God of Peace and Prosperity )


LONO IS ONE OF THE FOUR MAJOR GODS OF THE ANCIENT HAWAIIANS.  LONO, THE POLYNESIAN GOD OF PEACE AND PROSPERITY, FERTILITY, THE BRINGER OF RAINS, MUSIC AND AGRICULTURE.  THE ANNUAL FESTIVAL,  "MAKHIKI" IS HELD IN HIS HONOR.  DURING THIS TIME, OCTOBER THROUGH FEBRUARY WAR, AND UNNECESSARY WORK IS KAPU ( FORBIDDEN ).

ON A LIGHTER NOTE, HUNTER S. THOMPSON, 
BELIEVED HE WAS THE REINCARNATION OF LONO HIMSELF.  HE EVEN DEVOTED A BOOK, "THE CURSE OF LONO' TO THAT SUBJECT
.
