laojia, I couldn't remember the other ones, but a few, greed, slothfulness. Thanks!
Benzart, if I can do some small stuff,....maybe jus maybe.
Pablus, it's good to hear from you. I was looking at some Shag art and soon as I saw "The Mournful Ukulele", I thought of you.
But here's a new image you might like. You guys are all welcome to drop in whenev.

Lot's of good stuff going on, Vic!
I love the contrast of light and dark on "Drunk" and "Lust!"
Your backyard is a tiki paradise!
I look forward to the day when things green up and start growing here, but it still looks like a couple of months out yet.
I've got to get up in your area one of these days also and check out your digs!

NIce new carves vic! I like your contrasting light and dark (both in the carvings and the painted mugs - the b+w mug is REALLY well done)
they're both really awesome! I like the skewed lines of symmetry in the expression!
Nice backyard too - you gots a good eye for landscaping!!!!!

Lake, BigT, Polynesiac, Bookem Dano (I jus love sayin' that), mahalo for the good vibrations. You guys are all welcome at The Jungle's Outpost.
I don't think I posted this bad boy. Maybe I did and it was miniaturized by Hanford. It's at Minnie's for 325 clams. Pua shell eyes and cowry around the mouth, razorback reptile tongue. The hair is actually Cali Brown bear, got it from a local taxidermist. This style is in one of the Oceanic Arts books I have, very elaborate.

damn!!! that's where my toupee went. good use of the fur and that backyard looks great. doesn't get any better than sipping a refreshing adult beverage and tossing a line in and waiting for the fish to bite.

The proliferation of technical is very interesting, it's really replica of old idols, with a Jungle Trader's touch...Well done!

Liz, thanks. I try new things as much as possible. Bought a slab of clay at Michael's and tried to shape it but gave up. I'll stick to shaping wood.
big daddy, drop a line buddy. I tried to catch one "wallygray" koi this morning, with a net. He got away, I fell on my butt. ARRRR!
laojia, PNG is cool.
This image doesn't have tiki in it, so sorry. It's a front yard renovate of a landscape I did maybe 6 or 7 years ago. For all your info, a landscape should be reassessed by a designer (me) every 2 or 3 years as plants die, change, grow. The owner wanted a dry stream running thru the planter, old overgrown plants removed and new ones installed. WALLAH! The Look.

Your garden looks very nice but with a few of your tikis it will be perfect.
By the way, excellent new one.
Benjamin.

Aloha benella and big daddy, Happy Easter guys!
I wanted to show these newly painted ones although the one in the center has been shown. I'm keepin' these bad boys. The Bosko Kukohewa mug to the right actually inspired the Minnie's mug design. Aloha to Bosko and Truus, hope they and you guys are having a fine Easter Sunday with family/friends.
