Hey Kai Koa That's a very sweet photo of you looking all native carving a tiki! Dig it! Well, maybe this might make you feel better, - I was just thinking I might paint Tiki Tony's skull, but, your tiki is so beautiful "as is", I'd never touch it. Happy to see you carving AWAY from your inked skin, and not towards it! Remember what they taught us in boy scouts ...ah, do they even teach boys how to play with knifes in boy scouts anymore? Probably not. Sad. What's being a boy with out a knife collection! Remember how your friend would buy you a knife and the firt thing you had to do was cut yourself with it? Some kinda' good luck thing if I recall. Did anyone else have a child hood like that? Anyways - Looks like you are already on island! Oh, dude, thinking of carving... check out this guy's work: https://www.facebook.com/kauaicarver He's like this big handsome Hawaiian dude with long hair, and he can really carve tikis, and makes bitchin' Maui fish hook jewelry... I just wanna' like... BE him! But, soookay. I'm happy & grateful with my hipster hat, my Crazy-Al tiki-pendant, my gold tooth, and makin' da' Low-brow Tiki-Art painting. Very happy. (pssst.... and tween u and me, the "V.I.P. Tour" is highly over-rated! I'd takes drinks at Don's over it any day! Mostly it's just a "thing" my agent made-up and said would sound cool on my face book page. Well, that.... plus the VERY, V E R Y, NICE art patrons bought a hand full of high end giclees on canvas! So..... cha-ching!!) Anyways... I hate dwelling on the $ part of Art. ...with everything that's been going on. Tiki Tribe, all the bad ju-ju of my art being stolen, and lawyers doing their lawyer double speak, and threats from their lawyers on what 's gonna happen to me if I don't beat them... sheesh... I'm really sick of all this.... But, no way around it, but through. I gotta' pay the rent. Put food on da' table. Paint in the studio. I keep trying to get the store and the land-lord to take "ALOHA" but they always demand cold hard cash! ANYWAYS, Speaking of ART: here's the latest.... RED TIKI LOUNGE 24" x 30" Acrylic on canvas slowly being painted aganist waves of very non tiki energy crashing over me from another dimension.

Aloha Tiki Tribe!
