Like father, like son - A chip off the old block.

My favorite style is the Hawaiian style, Ku, Kane, and Lono, etc. Lots of expression and full body tiki. Also, angry as I might think they would be (considering that in 2 generations 80% of the land was no longer in Hawaiian ownership and considering that the last Hawaiian Queen was imprisoned - but, I digress.)

I also love the square mass of the Easter Island heads as well as those with the scoria topknots on their ahu. The immense scale, their enigmatic past and their isolated location all add to the aura.
