Holden's new mug would make a good companion piece for your map.

kirby posted on Tue, Nov 15, 2011 8:59 PM

Like that each tiki has its own gesture and posture. If you didn't catch Keylo's blopper of the week, stay tuned, there will be more. Of course I don't know my Mayan from my Yuccatan or a PNG for that matter. Killer work Kirby!!

The 3D boards are fantastic! Then you blast the 6 pack out and like.....whoa! You got mad Skilz Kirby! Mad Skillz!

Mahalo!! Thanks Benz, I was racking my brain trying to figure out a cool piece for that show, and the idea just kinda came to me, Although it is actually an evolution from a painting i did years ago,and have revisited in a few paintings since.

Great , love the skull hook and slit drum!

Some of the newer pigment stains allow both color and still show the grain. Unlike flourescent colored chalk I saw today on a "tiki" in Florida. Ouch!
