ALOHA TIKI TRIBE!

"TIKI CAT" has reached a new higher (or low brow?) level of Hawaiiana souvenir status: It's now a refrigerator magnet in all 100 plus ABC stores across the Hawaiian islands!!! It'll now be taken home by tourists from all over the world! I'll be in kitchens, cubicles, and YARD SALES EVERY WHERE FOR DECADES TO COME! Yippee! Do you think anyone really gets the joke - the low brow kitchy I was going for, or do you think they really think it's a real cute Kitty-cat playing a uke? Can they see close enough to make out the death-head in the cat's pupil? I guess part of the "ART" of this whole piece is that we may never really know for sure, and really does it really matter? My old collage Art appreciation professor would love this!
