I've been away from a computer for a few days..

So I come back here today and shit! - so many nice things surface when not paying attention.

I promise to pay better attention to these lovely children.

MadDogMike - The Baining Fire Dance Mug and the matching Pendant(w/beads) is so colorful and chunky + funky + cool. One of a kind, a standout presentation that's simply unforgettable. I likey them a lot.

TikiBai - Duke! International icon and star worthy of envy. A centerpiece attraction -kinda the roller coaster in the middle of our PNG amusement play-park. I would be proud to display Duke in my little grass hut.

Tikiville - Wall Carving. Awesome work on the wood project. Love the style, the grain, the stain, the paint. A very retro looking piece. Smart and well executed. I share my enthusiasm with many I'm sure.

Tobunga - As usual your creativity remains light years ahead of mine. I stand in shadow and tip my hat. Plush toys..I mean you're the only one creating plush tiki toys, right? These cute icons hold court in certain LA tiki social circles. I couldn't begin to duplicate one of these; I mean I can't even hold a needle and thread let alone thread a needle. Bonus - You receive two - WOW!!

VanTiki - The mask/mug combo. OMG!(or OMF'kgG) This offering really kicks my ass. Pretty stoked. Pretty speechless. Pretty incredible. Pretty.

TikiMango - Your pendant came out beautiful. You know I love all your work, so to see your new posts is something anticipated on an almost daily basis. I'm relieved & happy you decided to participate in this year's swap. I'm positive that art-swap-2009-TC'rs are excited (you joined.)

Palapala - Hewe-Meri! This mug is SWEET! Kinda scary..kinda funky..kinda my gal! I have yet to create in clay so I'm very open to unique and fun pieces like this. Inspiring and more inspiring.

Congatiki - Mask looks so good, dude! Modern primitive stuff going an here. I likey this one a lot too! (I know it must be the seashell eyes.)

Zerotiki - Are you finished with the blue canvas? So far, so good. Plenty of vibrant action and childlike and ghostlike qualities. Bravo!

Laojia - The grenadil wood Yipwan figure? SO BLOODY NICE! Such a nice exotic hardwood too..words cannot express..

LLT - Love your painting Ken, as always a fun conversation piece as I have come to expect. I expect this to become an heirloom canvas for somebody.

AlohaStation - Have you finished your walnut "Spy vs Spy" style pendant? Can't wait to see the finished piece. Looks awesome as is.

  • THANKS ALL FOR SHARING WITH US SO FAR -

To the rest - Keep us art fans in the loop with progress shots as I can barely wait to see the rest of these babies as they come up to post.

Cheers! G
