Polynesian tikis and Hawaiian tikis

Hi, everyone,
I've done my two 1st attempts at painting "Hawaiianlike" tiki aftr painting hundreds of "Tahitian" ones.

The biggest difference for me is that Tahitian tikis seem more peacefull thanthe "scary-tikis" from from Hawaii!! here is my 1st attempt...but it does not look that fierce, does it??!!

here is a more peacefull Tahitian one!!

They all have the "Mana" in them anyway!!!

Bonjour Stéphane,

Your blog is very interesting. As a french fan of tiki carvings I dream about traveling in Tahiti.
Thanks for sharing.

Benjamin.
