Gecko, I always notice your work on eBay and I think it is fantastic!!! Great craftsmanship with a very classic and unique style. I will definitely own a piece someday. Do you sell your stuff at any retail locations? I'm in San Diego and would love to check some of your carvings out in person. I read in one of your earlier posts about a place in SD called Hot Lava...however, I can't find any trace of it. If there are any, could you post or send me a list of places in Southern California where I could find your work. Thanks!

ModMana, two places near you where I know you can see some of Gecko's carvings are as follows:
Bamboo2U in Leucadia
Momalani's Island Traditions in Oceanside
You'll also be able to see some work from another resident TC carver, ChikiTiki aka Tiki Diablo at Bamboo2U. Check 'em out - good stuff.

Modmana,
If you're ever in Huntington Beach, you can check out a very cool Roratonga-style I got from Gecko when he stopped by my house last year.

Poly-Pop,
Thanks for the tips on locations. I've actually been meaning to get up to Bamboo2U for quite awhile now. I've never heard of Momalani's but I will definitely check it out soon. And yes, you are correct about ChikiTiki, he does some very fine work as well. With so much great art out there I'm going to have to expand my "tiki budget".
Tiki_Bong,
I do pass through Huntington Beach occasionally and I will take you up on that offer some day. The Roratonga style carvings are my personal favorite.
Gecko,
If there are any other places near SD I'd like to know about those as well. Also, do you have your own website to showcase your work? Thanks...
