Amazing work Eric. I especially like your conceptional work and your black paper work.
The concept on this one from the Hunters & Collectors show is outstanding:

Eric, it is always such a boost to visit your gallery and see the horn-of-plenty of concepts realized, in such a multitude of media, with such knowledge of the genre, but interpreted in so many creative new ways. Puts a big smile on my face every time!
Dig that Tikiyaki cut-out jet! Reminds me of cereal box backs...

Birdman bowls,PNG shotglasses,
and LOVE the background on the Lambrettiki piece
very minimal and perfect for showcasing the incredible scooter scootin Moai!
Keep it up Eric!

Another pile of work from the past few months finally posted... I still can't seem to swing even a monthly posting... but with a new year, perhaps I can make some sort of resolution or something...
Oh well... hope you enjoy!
Mahalos fer lookin'!

Insane maddness Eric!!!
I love the Tonga Fountain Bowl, the Tiki Menorah is hilarious (I'm not sure your Rabbi would approve). I had previously missed the Bumatay/fish connection, Wendy just posted a Bumatay fish too. Your caricatures are spot-on, the glazes on the birdman pendants are great and the PNG Bird mug is very cool.
I know that the Rapa Nui Birdman Bowl No.2 was an older post but I must have missed it - brilliant in it's simplicity
Keep on doing what you do Manuel!
