Fatuhiva,
You are right. There are definitely some knock-offs out there copying Wayne's work verbatim...I could name a few but I don't want anyone to get hurt. But there are also several carvers that have found their own non-traditional style, and niche and are doing quite well. And that, my friend is the beauty of art. You buy what you like. It doesn't matter how much it costs or how accurate a reproduction it is...all that really matters is that YOU like and appreciate it. Re: Jimmy Carter teeth and big lips...what do expect, this is the SOUTH ya know! Ha ha ha...

P.S. I just posted a big-lipper on the Carver forum...just for you bruddah! : )
