Well, back to the project I was working on with the Maori creation story illustrations/wood block prints, got sidetracked looking at all the great art here and painting for fun.

Here is a picture of the cover I have been working on for the creation story book.

and here for your viewing pleasure (maybe) sum tiki stuff I was workin' on yesterday..

Here is some B and W art, not tiki, but definitely Exotica, this is a detail of part of a large linocut print I carved and printed. Kinda 2D cubism meets Nubia/Egypt..

Here are my best paintings ever!-- ha ha... found white lil chalkwear fruit at the thrift for 49 cents ea..

What do u do with broken dollar tree tikis? If the feet are broken off u can glue them back on, or bury them waist deep in a plant pot or garden, put them in an aquarium with the sharp parts buried in gravel, make a crazy assemblage piece out of a dozen or so, or go back to the dollar store for a frame, remove glass, put on burlap or whatever for background, and file feet so it looks like tiki is emerging from the back of the picture. Not anything special, but I just can't throw away this poor lil' Ki'i.

PS
I am changing the name of this topic to Creating Sneaky.
