Hi fellow tiki enthusiasts.

Above is a detail from a larger project I'm working on. I have a few questions.

1. I've seen tiki faces in round, full moons once in a while, but I've never seen a classic crescent 'Man in the Moon' interpreted through the lens of tiki. Do you know of any previous examples? I'm surprised I couldn't turn any up, and I'm curious.

2. I tried a more polynesian tiki head first, but I ended up preferring the simplicity of the 'Easter Island' look. Do those count as tiki? (I see them lumped in with tiki all the time, and I'll probably do the same.)

3. Do you know of any tiki-motif stars? I patterned my stars after a design I saw etched in a bracelet. Maybe I'll go with little spirals, or something. Is there a classic 'quick read' tiki star design?

4. This is a work in progress
