This is an interesting piece (to me, particularly). I've studied the northwest totem poles a bit, and this carve is a melding of tiki and Native art sort of, no? I like it. Let's see more of these.

Hey! Thanks for the comments. I think what I was trying to go for with this tiki was a 'PoP' take on Marquesan style. I just kind of started at the top and worked my way down. I can see where you see the Native influence a bit but that must be from living here on the coast! Here's a picture of the back side. Check out more of my carvings on my site...www.tabootiki.com Mahalo!
