The Tiki Art of Dirk

Aloha kâkou !!
Like The Creature from The Black Lagoon ... here I am floating back to the suface ... Its great to see new faces here and old familiar friends!!

After a forced hiatus due to a faulty ticker I am back ... I want to thank all of the well wishers and friends for their support this past year. You guys are awesome!!

New Stuff Finally !!! More to come!! I will be posting my latest work here. Hope you like the new additions to my cast of characters.

I have also taken the step into 3 Dimensions and will have tiki wall masks that match some of my current designs. Super cool new stuff coming to the Tiki-Caliente II in Palm Springs June 4-6th too!!

Nice! Is that your carving?

Here is another ... this one is just a selection of the guy in the middle.

Approx. 18" Tall

Alas I no longer have the personal ability to produce carvings so I have all of my original designs made into carvings by Jason over at Smokin Tikis. The quality of the work and faithfullness to my original is fantastic.

New Pieces For Tiki Caliente II

Great work Dirk !!
