I've entered stuff a few times, and this is the first time I've actually won anything. I did notice more tikis this year, even though there is no specific category for tikis. There is an amazing array of unbelievable art produced by everyday people like you & me. So win or lose, whatever the case, it's just a good feeling to be a part of it. Polynesiac, I didn't realize the Picasso connection till just now. That is really cool! My inspiration relic is not that exact tiki, but very close. You'll notice it is a picture of a poor copy of a picture of some book taken somewhere, I'm not sure... :wink: teaKEY, that redwood tiki went on the shelf for a while. His sapwood was behaving badly so I put him on time out. Maybe I'll let him come out & play later on, sans sapwood (ouch!). A-A
