Aloha Dawn!
I'm a fan of your work. Happy to see you posting on Tiki Central.
Really liked the stuff you sent with Selector Lopaka & Puamana to Hukilau. Please keep up the great work.

Here they are a bit bigger.
Nice work Dawn
The reason you got the thumbnails in your post is that you didn't open the photos in Shutterfly. You took the properties from the thumbs therefore you copied the thumbs. It happens to everyone at first including me.. Hope this helps.

Wow, thanks,
T hanks for making my pics bigger. as I was posting these I was learning and taking notes.Ever since Dogbytes bought my collection there has been lots of local support,so I got all fired up and made a giant pile of new work.
I appreciate the positive feedback. Seems like Ive been doing this just for myself all these years. Now I'm ready to share.Its my personal obsession

Here are a couple more pics
This pair of tikis are created using elements of tapa designs. They can be hung any side up.Acrylic on canvas.3ftx1ft
This is my map of Taviuni. I lived on this island for a while, this is where i fell in love with Tapa
 here are some of the small tikis I make . they are charges with mana to protect the wearer.

The small tikis are actually made from Sculpy. I just figured out how to make them look like wood grain. I use these to make my tiki necklaces. The necklaces are kind of big, using semi -precious stones and vintage nuts and seeds ,coral and pearls.No two are alike.

I'm a little rusty on the posting thing. Id like to be more involved but alas I'm also on the shy side. Any way... I fee compelled to share some new art today Ive been working all spring and summer in anticipation of the Tiki Art Three show coming up in Sept. There are about 40 new paintings and wood pieces. Ive also been working on re-doing the interior of my 64 bus. I just put in a slate floor. Here are some paintings I hope you enjoy. If you have any questions about what your looking at please ask
