Hi Gang. Sorry for the slowness & lack of wordiness lately; I find myself well & truly buried under a tiki mountain once again. If it wasnt all such good fun I would probably be tearing my hair out about now...

Thanks to all for your comps!

LLT: If only it was that peaceful; kids, animals, visitors, electrified gee-tars, power tools & screaming rocks. This is how tiki is born at my place. shhhh... :wink:

JohnnyP: :)

Thanks Hewey. Im rapt with the new-improved Tiki-toki design/s myself. I have probably made 5-6 variations on this theme and for some reason am quite 'into' them at the moment; got another 3-4 drawn up. Not as big as that last one.

Cheers Bennella, Harro, Sneaky, Clarita & McTiki!

Flynny: eek! a monster job* has just loomed its ugly deadline at me & I may have to juggle the pebble a little higher for a week. Bonus bitties just got a little sweeter. :wink:


eek! *The reality of agreeing to be a part of an upcoming exhibition in Sydney has hit, doh! Only about two weeks until I have to have something in the post...
One aspect of the show (4-5 artists who at one time or another have lived & carved jade on NZs West Coast) is that we will all be using predominantly Australian jade. I have a couple of non-tiki pieces made already but cant let an opportunity go by...

'Hei-tiki in Aussie-Black'

after a hard days' rockin'...


Cracking my own whip. ! Back to the grind!

Tama :)
