Wendy and MDM- glad u like, this one is fun. Palm is so easy to carve into compared to so many other hard woods here in Vegas...
Got a late start today, so once the sun got the heck out of the way, I did a lil more

Coming along nicely my friend. Digging the contrast between the bark and the wood.

It's looking good. We melt in the garage this time of year. I'm glad to hear you are avoiding the sun. This is national awareness month for Melanoma. Wendy

McTiki- Yep the color contrast is cool but I have to take all the bark (light color) off, it's all cracked n falling off anyway.
Wendy- Today it was 112 degrees out in the shade, had to hit myself a few times with the hose as soak my hat a couple times, so I was only out for an hour. But worked on the teeth and eye lid. Next will be the eyebrows.

Well the 2012 Mad Dog Mike Pele/Fire/Volcano art swap came to a close
and I just saw on the post that I will be trading my Pele piece to Mad Dog himself.
I get his awesome volcano mosaic table...
My tiki bar gets a MDM original......sweet
