I got to carve this little guy for luxuriamusic.com for tiki oasis
Kevin Kidney did some really cool art-work for luxuriamusic with a little blue guy listening to red headphones with a big smile on his face.......that was the inspiration.......I hope that it's ok for a tiki to be blue with headphones

HEY, YOU KIDS! GIT OFF MY LAWN!
If you're in Ramona CA and you want sushi, seafood or plate-lunch check out DA TUNA SHACK on Main St.
They have a few TiKis that I carved tucked into the corners.

I needed another TiKi for a project and I had this guy in my yard.
he was carved from a poor quality log, but I like his look.
the top was all split and I stained him too dark, so I sanded him down and glued a piece of plywood to the top to cover the cracks.
probably not a very tiki way to go, but I think he looks OK

My wife gave me a couple of draw knives and some chisels for Christmas.
I never used a draw knife before.
it worked pretty well for skinning this log.
THANKS HONEY!

I haven't been carvin' as much as I would like to but here's a recent one.
I picked up a few old chisels on e-bay and one of them is a perfect "nostril chisel" (at least in my opinion)
Thanks for looking
