There are some other great NW Indian carvings at http://www.alaskanativeartists.com. You're right Polynesiac, the Northwoods of Wisconsin is filled with hunting shacks and log cabins where some bird/animal carvings would fit right in. I recently did a carving demo at a local woodproducts company event and people were impressed with my work but a little bit confused. One lady actually brought the bible into the discussion and suggested that I be very careful carving false gods. I think ravens/other animals would do pretty well. But I LOVE carving tikis...so who knows.
