Aloha everybody!

I've been working on some new stuff... here's some of it:

These are sort of Tiki Valentine's Day cards.

The first one is inspired Maori tikis:

I've always thought parts of Maori tikis looked like hearts, like their mouths, and sometimes their tongues and the shape of their heads. So I pushed the heart idea farther, and made every part of their bodies heart-shaped. The two tikis have their arms linked in a tiki embrace.

This linoleum block-print card is 4" x 6". It is printed with brick-red ink on a textured, fibrous paper and comes with a matching envelope.

The next card came about from all the tiki-romance that's been in the air lately, and was inspired by two of our tiki friends.

The image is two Ku-type tikis embracing. The negative space created by their mouths (and noses) forms the shape of a heart.

This linoleum block-print card is also 4" x 6". It is printed with brick-red and maroony-brown ink on a textured, fibrous paper and comes with a matching envelope.

Cards are 6.00 each, including shipping! PM me if you are interested!

Thanks fer lookin'!
