Hi, THANKS! The hot rod tiki was done by Eric Newman of Jinx Proof Tattoo in Montclair NJ. He is a cartoonist master. The detail in the hot rod tiki is amazing. I was thrilled!!! hugs~ tink

Remember the song:
So we tanned his hyde when he died Clyde and that's it hanging on the shed.
Too much good art ends up buried, put the tanning in your will. Wendy

Here is my only tattoo. Inspired by my 3 loves in life, Tiki, Cartoons & Family.
Heres the breakdown:
Tiki of Stitch from Disney's Lilo & Stitch
- I have a great love of cartoons and Disney. He is my favorite character, so he becomes a Tiki.
Paw Prints
- These represent Myself, my wife, son, & daughter. When they were 2&3 they would tell stories of our animal selves and this is what animals we were, Me: Bear, Wife: Wolf, Daughter: Cheetah, Son: Lion. I need to update this as I have a 8 mos old son, & another on the way, just don't know what it is yet!
And Finally, OHANA.
- Lilo & Stitch had the BEST definition for it.
"Ohana means Family, & Family means nobody gets left behind."

This is a guy I met carving tikis at the hot rod nationals last year. Yes, that's his coupe.

Heres mine done by Henry Powell at 6 foot under . He works with Cory Miller from LA Ink.The original design had a terrible looking tiki so I drew the Garden Tiki from the Hanalei Hotel on it .
