I haven't got a name for this one. Any Suggestions? Here is a carving that I was working on for the last two years. I finally finished sanding it and gave it splash of stain. The wood is Camphor and had a really spicy smell to it when I was carving it. Unfortunately, I think the face has more of a Native American Totem pole look than South seas look about it. Here is a painting I did on the top of it at as a last minute decision after seeing the latest Pirates of the Carribean. Originally I was going to make a small table with this tiki but it was to low to the ground and a top would of hidden the tiki. So I tried something new and painted the top of it with acryllic paints and paint pens. Not tiki you say, to the devil with ya I say! Savvy Mate? 3/4 Veiw for your gawkin' pleasure. I had another driftwood carving of a mask and another small painted tiki portrait with a neat little bamboo and rope frame but they were sold at the Tiki Invasion and I forgot to get a pic of them. Dang it! Cheers! Chongolio
