Hey there MrTikibar,
Yeah, I found your old post on those Koreans, when I was going to post them earlier. They are really impressive up close.
That first one is something as well. The guy is in Seal Rock, about 7 miles south of Newport. There's an old west village that he has taken over. Cowboys, Miners, Vikings, and now Tikis are perched all over the place.
The big one and it's unfinished mate are a custom order for someone in Cannon Beach. They brought him pictures of something they saw in Hawaii. He didn't say what they paid and I didn't press. Little bitty machine made bear cubs a foot or so big were something like $250, so ??? He said as a kid he made alot of Tiki stuff. "Sold like hotcakes!"
There's also a guy down in Yachats doing weird organic looking stucco/concrete yard art. He's got a couple of heads that look very Moai.
I know it's not much, but it's nice to have a couple of spots just to drive by once in a while when you need a little Tiki fix.
