Jetted over to Trader Vic's on Saturday before the Chef Shangri-La event to check out my work that was hung last week.

A proud milestone for me, and Chicago's GM is stoked on them.

The work I did for them are centerpieces in the room with other art to come hung around them.

The carvings work well with the barkcloth and the other tikis in the room.

It was a little tough shooting pictures with the lighting in the room, very yellow and on a dimmer... we tried cranking the lights up a bit but that washed out some things.
I'll try for some better pictures next time, but for now here's a look...

:up: My "Beachcomber Ku" on one of the walls

:up: My Marquesan Honu on another wall

:up: Tangaroa Mask

:up: Room overview with the Ku on the back wall and Tangaroa on the side wall

:up: Marquesan Mask on another wall

:up: Kona Style Mask on the west wall of the room.

:up: A washed-out closeup of the "Beachcomber Ku" on the wall

Another trip to the museum Monday for some research, then tying up some loose ends on some unfinished projects this week...

More goodies to come!
