I went to see how are the carvers who live near the sea...and now, I'm back and it is a lot of work in progress in the workshop...And it starts to get hurry:

Thank you! Thank you John CC!!! I do not know if one day he will visit Florida, at least he went to Paris next month for the new exhibition Tiki Tribe! See above!
