W wushu Member columbus,OH Joined: Jun 27, 2004 Posts: 47	W wushu Posted posted on Mon, Jul 5, 2004 8:44 PM I wanted to keep my carvings separate from my other works. Carving is hobby and I have alot fun doin' it. Painting is for keeps so to speak. This is my first attempt "Moai Bob" finished last summer Tiki #2 "The Sleepy Tiki" finished last fall I encountered lots of frustration with this piece and took a long hiatus from my chisels and mallet And finally, "Ki'i Akau" I just finished him this morning 10"x 11" x 18" my biggest and most envolved yet Please give me some constructive criticism, feedback, anything...
