This is the 2nd of my "Tiki Vignette 3" series I started at DaddyKatz last week. It was commissioned by an art collector with an unbelievable floor-to-ceiling one-room collection and a good sense of humor - what a combination!

This is layer one for the foreground Tiki.

Back to my moai canvas, which is dragging on and on...

I'm still trying to get the moai texture to look right...

...and have to resort to using broccoli!!

This edge is the most important single element in the painting to me: if I get it right, the moai will have an actual dimensional look.
