Tiki art and a lesson in how different woods look when the grain is exposed. This is a lot of fun. I sure like that mad moai. Wendy

Those bead for eyes was a good idea. I have Goodwill necklaces that I buy but use them for necklaces. I have abalone just waiting for the right project too. Wendy

So in my tiki bar I have a “Rapa Nui” cabinet that holds quite a few items, imagine that. Didn’t like the plain drawer pulls and door pulls so I thought I’d start making my own:

Mango Moais and an alligator juniper Birdman:

Still have two more to go!

Ok So I wanted a walking stick, or 4

The first one I made was from a piece of eucalyptus, I trimmed my neighbors tree and kept a few branches:

Green mamba

6AA76F33-3D8A-4E6B-9919-62CAA305FA62

Next was an old fence post I had in my garage, I think it’s pine, this one I wanted a coral snake winding in and out of a piece of Cholla cactus wood:

B8EBB339-5968-4BF0-8851-FB1461DF0847BA2DA533-E281-47E5-8BE7-CA5384A1E71D

One day on a walk, I found this stick on the side of the road, thought it would make a perfect black mamba:

0D68BA62-A39A-4957-88A1-CEE9139A14B7

Lastly a piece of ash, they recently cut a tree down in a park by my house and I was lucky enough to obtain all the wood, I wanted to try my hand at painting so I went with a copperhead snake:

235A3302-ACD2-4882-837D-DB809D83E552

The gang: F5F5037A-461F-41DC-B2A9-9699E7C5790C

(Inspiration and tips for the walking sticks obtained from Carver/painter Mike Stinnett.)

PS- did I mention the snake scales took me about an hour an inch to burn in. I think it was about 100 hours per stick! Lol

That's an over-the-top spectacular multi-tiki work of art. Each little tiki has a personality. It's fun to look at all of your pages and to see how you challenge yourself. This one is a master work. Every one of those hours was worth it.
