It appears that I am the Long Island's only tiki carver. At least I haven't seen, heard or smelled any others. The following tikis already have homes, but occasionally I will put some up for sale. In fact I just acquired a back-breaking 5'8" log so check back.

I will work on commission, but only for those living in the NYC/Long Island area. But don't worry, chances are you can find a tiki carver in your own neck of the woods.

The Tattooed Tiki (The owner will be naming him shortly)

This tattooed wildman measures an even 4', but packs the attitude and protective mojo (crossed arms = protection for the rightful owner) of a much larger tiki. Sorry but one lucky individual has already snatched this one up.
You have to be quick around here.

The Little Kahuna

The Little Kahuna measures up to 3' 10.5" (another inch and a half he would have been the Medium Kahuna). The Little Kahuna is likely the first tiki ever to be sporting a Hawaiian shirt. Definately a one-of-a-kind, and sure to be the life of the party.

Woo the Protector

Woo is carved from a big-jamming piece of oak (5'6") and is stained the color of Jacobean.
Woo is now part of the artist's personal collection.
Sorry, but don't fret, you can always comission me to carve his twin.

Bernie (I can't beleive they named him Bernie)

This tiki was donated to a charity auction in March '05. It's carved from a 4' oak log, stained with a mix of Golden Pecan and Mahogany stains, and finished with 2 coats of marine (Spar) varnish.The unique feature of this one is that I not only left some of the bark as a design element, but stained andvarnished it as well.

Fisher tiki

I carved the Fisher tiki from a near 4.5' log that was about 18" in diameter. Yes, wood is heavy.This was a gift to my friend Bob, an avid fisherman. I experimented with metallic greenspray paint to hi light the fish before applying the varnish.

Flaming Tiki

This is an early piece that I am fond of for its ultra-primitive appearance. This one is unique in that I hollowed out the head in order to light it up. The 14" hole took about as long to carve out as it took to carve the entire piece. It can either be lit with candles, or better yet, a pile of red and yellow blinking Christmas lights. This guy resides next to my home tiki bar, but will be making a yearly public appearance on Halloween.
