A labor of love

Tiki for a friend...

A friend from work once asked me to carve a Tiki for her. I thought it sounded fun, so my answer was, “Sure. But it may take a long time.”

Which, of course, it did. It took a while because I’m short on time, in general. Aside from a full-time job, writing a book and raising kids, time for other projects is a luxury.

The final, sans some sanding, a couple coats of oil and a good shellacking.
