Hiltiki: Funny you should say that. I am always amazed that when people see my stuff, everyone has a different favorite one. Especially awhile back when I had close to 30 tikis around my place. People would come over, and each person would pick a different favorite one. Rarely would two people have the same favorite. I keep waiting for more than two people to like any single piece of my work. I'm trying to design that one slam dunk piece that everyone will love, and I'll keep making that one over and over again for my career. If I could just find that one design...
The original piece that I carved was made with two others that were similar shaped. The other two were higher priced and sold early on on saturday at Tiki Oasis. this one was super cheap and sat there for the whole weekend. It was also the last of the quick tikis that I made that did not sell. There was one person out there who liked this design, and somehow, he found it, and wanted another. The cool thing is that it gave me an idea for a bench...
