great work as usual Rodeo....nice to have you back. Your carvings always have some unique
elements that set them apart....I dig the nose and skull on this one. Keep going....carving
always seems to make tough days better....at least for me.

Thanks everyone, This skull tiki guy has lots of Tc influence, some by Crazy Al and Swampfire, some from the picture on the cover of tiki style.
I recieved a book that i ordered today called "COLLECTIKIBLE" by Mr G. There is a painting he did of a flaming tiki pinstripe brush. So I was inspired to carve my own version.
Here is where its at so far...

I had the opportunity to see some of Rodeo's fine Tikis on Saturday at cool Hot-Rod event. Pictures never seem to do an artist's work justice. His tikis are very cool! His carvings were definitely turning some heads and introducing some to the world of TIKI!

More excellent stuff Mr Rodeo. I like this new one. He looks like a thinned down stretched out Homer Simpson with a beard, so give him a can of Duff beer, he looks thirsty.

Thanks for the kind words guys.
Slacks , so glad that you stopped the show and brought a print. Wow its amazing in person.
I had a lot of fun at my first public tiki display. I did a little carving but mostly drank red bull and listend to some great bands. Met lots of cool people and was blewn away by the feedback on my carvings. I did pick up 2 new commisions wich I am looking forward to doing.
Heres a couple of pics of where I was set up.

Congradulations. It is no surprize you received a lot of positive comments. The kids look great lined up for the photo. The black and white really gives it a retro look.

Congrats on your first public display, were you wearing a trench coat? Har, Har!
seriously, there's nothing like showing off your fine work and getting postive feedback (and commisions!) to keep you pumped. Nice job and I'm glad you had fun.
Excuse me while I drool on that lincoln...is that your continental?

Sadly the Lincoln is not mine. Its the owner of the shops. I was amazed at how much stuff we put in the trunk.
Today I went by the store and there was a envelope waiting for me. It contained some photos taken by a photographer, I didn't even see him take my picture. The note said he played with the pics on the computer. I thought it was cool that he sent me some copies.
Got some new stuff in the works. Updates to follow soon.

Awesome Rodeo! That looks like a kool setup, and hanging with a shop makes a lot of sense when you're just getting into it too.
Congrats on the new wor too
