Here are the five tikis that will be in the Skootiki show through this month.


This is the group that's going to the Artwalk here in Gresham this Saturday the 16th. It's not a tiki show and I don't really fit in with the other art there but that's what makes it so fun. Some people avoid my tikis like the plague but others really embrace them. If you live in the area come on out-I promise not to shrink your head.

This is what the Artwalk looked like. Even with a little rain in the morning I had a blast and met some great people.

I wanted Paddleman done for this show but I took him as a work in progress.


The back.


There are some cool worm or insect marks that look like an intricate tattoo. No way I could carve that well so I left as much as possible.


Finally finished "Jimbo". He is named after the Reverend Horton Heat's bass player.

"Lombardo" is done. He was like carving a mixture of shredded wheat and pumpkin. His soft head makes him endearing
