From how I see it, Keigs = Witco. But both Keigs and Bosko are good at what they do and are leaders in their styles.

Keigs, this lamp is really NICE. I Love the smoothe finish and the fact that it doesn't look like it was Dunked in Poly and hung out to dry. Nice. Also, the Carving is only Part of the whole piece, the lamp looks Well engineered and assembled. I would like to see close-up shots of the tiki, plus the spear ends too! I Love having you posting regularly again!

Well its been a while since I posted. So I thought I would post my latest carving. Its not tiki but does have some faux fabric in it. This cat is based on a Witco design and is called "Pussy Galore" I think it needs a painted sun in the corner but I am scared I might screw it up. Here is a tiki plaque I did also

I love this piece Ken, especially the way those colors set off the carved portion of the piece.

Kirby and Polynesiac thanks I have to say screw my slow dial up connection and post once in a while to keep up with you guys.
Congatiki I used copper wire for the whiskers faux fur for the body it also has glass eyes but you cant really see them in the pic.
tiki Kate thanks also I too really like the paint to set off the wood so I added a sun to my kitty here is another picture
