Aloha Dave! This was a great idea, reposting and consolidating all your wonderful pieces.... As you already know, I love your style. I was looking over the poles, while visiting my yard yesterday 
Thanks for doing this.

That's a great body of work you've got, BK. Ever thought of putting out a book?
Nice, nice, niiiiiiiice!

Thanks, Dav, but Lord, no! I think I'd have to have a few more accomplishments before I ever thought about a book..I think Sam Maloof had a right to write a book about himself, but not me! Leroy Schmaltz, Barney West, Milan Guanko, Benzart, Ed Crissman....now that would make a good book! Eli Hedley-that book's been done, and that's a great book

Fantastic work, Basement K! These two in particular stand out for me.
Very unusual. What's their story?

Thanks, Dav...The top piece is a type of Maori gaurdian spirit called a Marakihau. The second piece is the Solomon Islands god of the ocean, Ngorieru. The way the original petroglyphs of that piece are drawn I had to interpret the flow of it a great deal. That piece is being cast as a pendant for South Sea Arts. Aloha! BK

The second is being cast, I think that first one should too.
