Here's a sampling of some of our tiki-themed mosaic work from present to past. The first piece was created for the 'Easter Island, Myths, and Popular Culture Exhibition' that will travel from The Captain Cook Museum in England to the Kon Tiki Museum in Oslo and then on to the Museo Antropológico P. Sebastián Englert, on Easter Island. There's a link to the post on TC about the show: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=38338&forum=4&7 We're pretty thrilled that one of our mosaics will be seen in such incredible locations!

Super Art. I think the Tiki Farm is my favorite, Holden should have that in his tiki room at work. Dan's favorite is the Peek Ku Boo, I hope I remembered the name correctly. I like the light coming from the mug a lot. Thank you for posting, I'm looking forward to what you do next, Wendy |

Here's some work we've recently completed in collaboration with the lovely Fluff: She Devil Mosaic Kimono Cutie Pendant: The faces were created by etching the glass and then hand painting the details. We'll have a very limited number of the pendants at Tiki Oasis :) |

They may be covering her boobs, but we did the boobs anyway. They're under those shells in all their boobage glory, for anyone who cares to peek. Of course, you gotta buy the mosaic first :) |

Love your work...always have, always will. Way too many cool things to praise individually, but I really dug cubist Mr. Bali Hai, and the twirl-o-matic pasties made me chuckle. Incorporating mugs into your work is a stroke of genius. I have no idea how you guys keep pushing it so far, but please don't stop! |

We are building a virtual Ebay store and filling it with both our tiki and non-tiki mosaics. Come on in and sit a spell! In the Christmas spirit, we are adding the "make an offer" feature to the listings so if you or your special someone has been desperately waiting to get that special piece now would be a great time to do it. |
