Hello Ohana!
Thank you all for the visits and coaxing along!
It really helps on this journey
to be able to stop and rest
and say Aloha
to a few friends along the way!
:)
Greg-SOON! Very SOON shall we collaborate again!
get Mel to cook another turkey and i am so THERE!
:)
amybean-we will! Mahalo!
BooBen-YOU are always an inspiration,my friend!
Onward and Upward!
Benz-Speaking of inspirations......
:)
Luvs you too,man!
Your imagination,drive,talent,knowledge,and humble nature
should be an example to all of us artists!
(in fact,if you scroll down,i think you will see a
certain chief who proudly resides in your hut!)
This week's offering....
a taste of my Maori work
probably not all of it
sometimes they slip thru the cracks of my anal-retentive files
but i will put them in this category as i find them
for your reference and amusement!
