Boy!
you shore kin paint dem whiskers!

You're right about the artist/illustrator observation....
Explains why a lot of lowbrow artists seem unfocused and confused sometimes...

You and Thor both are illustrators,but mainly fine artists
because your work speaks
loudly,when printed on paper
Super Loud when viewed in person
(by "loud" i mean the impact/drenched with feeling
one gets when standing in front of an original painting...

I say keep the bird
he is necessary to what your original intention was
so a lot of the core feelings remain in that concept...
That whole "communicate what YOU really want
vs the consideration of the audience
(ie: artist vs illustrator)
can be balanced by most
and you and Thor both
seemed to have nailed it!

Now let's see that birdy!

Congrats on the Spectrum acceptance again!
thanks for representing Tiki to the masses!
