If i had a dollar for every one who "wanted" one of my tikis i think i'd be as well off as "Donald Trump".One of the best things to come from my carving is i've made some great friends, in the end their worth more anyway.(although a couple of bucks in the pocket dont hurt!!)But when some one really wants your art and is willing to pay to own it and appreciates how much you put into it.You quickly forget the frustrating times.And go back to carving with more enthusiasm and a sense of purpose. gotta go my chisels are a" callin"
