M McTiki Member Sunny Florida Joined: Aug 22, 2004 Posts: 1962	M McTiki Posted posted on Tue, Apr 12, 2011 3:24 PM Ok, So I took my wife to the Mayo Clinic in Jax, FL. We stayed in a nice hotel, and when I ventured outside to survey the property, (I always tour the property...don't ask) I noticed this Art-decoish outdoor lamp. I snapped a pic and sent it to her in an attempt at getting a smile out of her. So, later on in the evening, I sat with my sketch pad and toyed with it a bit. It wanted to be a cannibal. Then this happened... More to come! Thank you for browsing. Mahalo! McTiki [ Edited by: McTiki 2011-04-12 15:27 ]
