I think it's a nice way to wrap up this thread - and I totally understood what it was about the first time you posted it Kaluna. There are very similar Maori pieces where the form is merely suggested rather than rendered in detail, but they are no less effective for it. Cheers Tama, Benz, Jonesy and kaluna (who I will quote again): "...tiki (ki'i) is more to you then just a word from the past. Long live the tiki lovers.
