Sir Kinny...I'm pretty busy the next few weeks, and I have a trip coming up soon...still, I'm moving a "head" with the work in the studio...I would like to stay a "head" of the game if I can.

Clarita - Your always so nice...I'm not sure the work deserves all that, but "thank you"!

Mad Doggie - Thanks brother, I can't wait to see pics of the stage set you've been working on.

Heather - Wow back...what an honor to have you bounce in with a few kind words. I hope that your going to be vending at Oasis this year; I would very much like to meet you and see more of your work in person.

Leleliz - Thank you too :) I think this bowl will make it just fine...It is almost dry now, and no cracks have appeared anywhere - YAY!

Well I have several of these guys started and the sculpting part on one done so far this weekend...

Out of respect towards all New Zealand natives everywhere, this Hoale will not be naming any of his Trophy Heads with New Zealand names, instead I'm focusing on Western names...think of it in some small way as a little "pay back" for the head trade business that they were responsible for in the late 1700's - early 1800's...served up first - "Antonio"....

The first 4 Trophy heads that are gone right now, had no names...

Thanks for takin' a peek!
