T-freak (and Tama)...a fern? Well, no, but yes, but...it was meant to be a sort of mini Rei-Puta, kinda like the Aussie jade piece I posted a while back with the notched sides. It's pretty simple and abstract, so I guess it's really in the eye of the beholder. Banana leaf anyone?

Ben, I love rawk tongues, I grew up on Kiss and I'm not shamed to admit I still dig 'em. So I guess everyone now knows why I make so many tongue tikis!

T, I knew you'd know/have that source pic somewhere. I really like the look of that whole rectangle-with-opposing-faces version too...hmmm....
Using the insert to create the eyes meant quite a bit of post-work fiddling around with the cavity to get everything nicely lined up, and in this case it's the stuff you can't see that took up a lot of the time.
Drinks aren't far away, I promise! Have I told you I've got 2 bottles of Tequila waiting over the hill?

Duddy and seeksurf - thanks for dropping by, glad you liked this new fella. Here's some better pics of him:

Hmmmm...ferns?
