That is the difficulty: All of the pictures that have surfaced on the net of his work, like in his sculpture garden in his second home in Zephyrhills...

show dragons and gargoyles and other fantasy sculptures, but no actual Tikis:

It seems that except for those Moai, he did Tikis mostly on commission for restaurants and resorts.
But having looked at all that is out there, and how stylistically all over the place his paintings were...

...it seems to make sense that these Tikis all came from his shop.
