Aloha and G'day from Australia.

I'm a tiki head from down-under, Sydney to be exact.

Currently i'm studying land management at uni and fulfill my island fantasies with drawing tiki themed stuff. It started with Hawaiin shirts 'cause they're so bright and colourful. I've always been into cars and I started to get into traditional rods and kustoms, and Tiki culture. I got the book of Tiki and it just fot worse...Hello Ebay!

I want to get into Tiki art (skateboards, surfboards, art on canvas, carving etc) I really would like to have a go at making a tiki sculpture with stainless steel and fully polish it... and wood carving too.

Current ride is a fairly standard '70s Beetle, with Tiki pin up stickers, lei off rear mirror, and Hawaiin print parcel shelf. Next ride is '70s VW kombi with a full wrap around mural covering the whole thing, to be dubbed the "Tiki Wagon" - Keep you posted
