Just got home from The Contamporary Museum of Honolulu’s August Moon wine tasting fund raiser at The Edge at the Sheraton Waikiki. I was one of the featured artists at the “Drawn Out” venue table of artists who all donated their time and talents to create artwork on the fly for sale to the attendees to whip up some much needed cash for the museum. Traffic going into Waikiki was horrendous (Saturday? go figure) so I got there a little late (Sorry, Waileia!) – I really should have known better. I managed to draw two pieces – an oni gnawing on a skull, and two nekomimi girls in a box. Both pieces sold almost immediately. Whee! Cade ended up with my last minute scribble “Tio Muerte contra El Prehensilo”, which was not ready for prime time. I am a little curious as to who bought my pieces…
Somewhere on the way out to the parking structure, I lost my bluetooth headset from my ear. Curses! Nonetheless, I had a good time and was glad that I was included in the lineup. It was good seeing Cade & Waileia, Ryan & Nicole, May, Mike, Allison, JT & Tracy, and the other familiar faces I’ve seen at previous events. The food was excellent and the wine was probably better than my feeble understanding could appreciate. Speaking of which, it’s time to kick back with my dark chocolate ice cream and watch some anime until the wine headache subsides.
Man, was I fawked up at that thing. The Mojito I had at Rum Fire totally pushed me over the edge. I was sporting the wine hang over headache well before I left that thing!
