I get these attacks that last a few days or so where I can do nothing physical.After which I'll be fine for awhile, Surgery on friday will slow me down a bit but I will be working on Hale Tiki and others on the list also.day by day.

You've been doing a lot of great work recently, and I guess it's just your bodys way of saying "take it easy" for a while. Like Kooche said, I'm sure you'll be on your feet and back at your carving station in no time. I can't wait to get my carving in the mail and be the coolest kid on the block! (I've been a good boy and saving my pennies!)

A Picasso brush that is missing a few bristles. Relax and take the time to get those few bristles back. When the Picasso brush is full of bristles, it will create to the fullest!

There's a lot of feeling coming from this simplicity. The figure looks as if it's "wincing" and maybe clutching something small. A comfort piece perhaps? Just a beholder comment. Good luck and hope to meet you sometime. Aloha. Mrs. Boo

This piece was taken from the Sneaky Tiki on page 180 of BOT and there was not much to go by. I'm sure we wil meet at this years HukiLau.Myself and Mrs BenZart will be there.

Dr. says to do Nothing for 5 weeks this time, he Doesn't want to have to re-do this a 3rd time.( Sounds like a wife!) I should be back carving sooner than that. Thanks

First my wires broke (neck), Then my digital camera broke (dropped it), now the Harddrive on my computer broke (as in Crashed, alldata lost)fortunately I have most data saved on second Drive and now am half way thru rebuilding.... I aint touchin nuthin else less its absolutely necessary. Dont think much more can break anyway. Better days are coming, I can feel it.
