Aloha Guys and thanks for the bump! Its been a super busy year so far with Hukilau, Ohana, and lot's of commissions. I've been doing a ton of new work for Foundation Tiki Bar this month also. Here's a quick update of how the Spring and Summer have gone...

Here are the Marquesan Poles I carved back in February installed in their new home at Foundation Tiki Bar...

After cranking away on new work all Spring, June arrived and so did Hukilau 2011...

And right after Hukilau was Ohana 2011 in Lake George, NY...

This month has been full of new work for Foundation Tiki Bar as they continue to expand and improve the bar.
A new booth and stage in the back of the bar gave me the opportunity to add some new PNG work.

Here I'm adding some color to a pair of East Sepik PNG rail posts I carved.

To go along with the rail posts was this PNG Spirit Board inspired trim...

With the carving and painting complete, Don and I were able to get everything installed this past week...

There was also some space for a couple new Micronesian inspired storyboards that I carved and painted...

Lot's more going on in the coming weeks with commissions and new work as I get ready for the Forbidden Island Parking Lot Sale in September.
I'll try and post some more updates as time allows!
