Well said, Geedavee!
Here's another twist...

I think the trademark of Tiki art is a sense of play-fullness and humor, along with an otherworldly flavor..So we place ourselves in another category all together Thus the "uni-brow".

Does and should, "Hi-brow" art,make you laugh?

If we get political and serious, don't we take a chance of becoming maudlin, and, Gods forbid ,"keane-ish"

Don't we need more reasons to laugh and feel light hearted these days?
If I see a weeping Tiki, It better be crying over a split Mai-Tai!


Make me somthing Tripical. You know,a mai-tai,with 3 shots of rum!
Is it just me, or do whales look like they're built upside down?
