It gives me great pleasure in sharing some of Hawaii's culture with other artists on around the globe. The tiki culture has definitely resurfaced since it's last rage in the
60's surfer-crazed era. The earliest origins of Polynesian tiki carving date back thousands of years ago to the islands of New Zealand, Samoa and Tahiti, to name a few,
before the Hawaiian tikis came into existence. The Hawaiian style of tiki carving was originally performed by high ranking (alii) tribesmen from each of the Hawaiian Islands. All
tikis were considered sacred, and were used in special ceremonies and temples. Very few original ancient tikis remain today and can be appreciated in museums, not only in
Hawaii, but in other destinations as well.
In this Artool® Tiki Master II Series, not only do you get some great new tiki designs to work with, but you will also enjoy additional special images of Hawaii - like lei flowers and some lovely poses of hula maidens. What would paradise be without hula girls and flowers? Give your artwork a tropical twist, guaranteed to put you into the spirit of aloha!
Tropic Tribals
Ancient Hawaiian warriors wore many types of tribal tattoos given to them by Kahunas or chiefs. These tribal designs are completely unique with their divine tropical rainforest influences. Use them as is, or as a great ghost filler in a stripe or graphic pattern. In ancient Hawaiian tattooing, a sharpened bone was used to stab the ink into the warriors skin... yeouch! We suggest that you spray some paint with an airbrush!!!

Hula Spirit
Hula plays a huge part of the Hawaiian culture. Each hula dance tells a story, and each graceful move signifies an object or feeling. The days of old Hawaii are preserved through many generations of talented dancers keeping this ancient art form alive. The lovely hula maidens on this template will give you the opportunity to adorn your project with paradise. Diamond Head and palm trees take you right into Honolulu, throw in some ukuleles and you will be swaying, too!

Two Face Tiki
These traditional tiki heads are my version of comedy and tragedy with a Hawaiian flair. Solid fill images allow you to spray them on any background color. With the additional graphic elements like tears, stars and even evil teeth you can create numerous looks for this pupule (crazy) pair of tikis.

Freakin' Tikis
This savage collection of tribal tiki confusion would lead you to think that I had a bad dream! This South Seas frenzy of faces allows you to spray in larger spaces by continuously linking them together side-by-side or top-to-bottom. Use these wild tikis to enchant your graphics with that primitive Polynesian style!

Leilani
It is a tradition in Hawaii to greet a visitor with a flower lei. The lei is given to men and women, young and old, to honor birthdays, graduations, anniversaries or just about any reason. This template is designed to use the hibiscus or plumeria alone. You can link the side flowers endlessly adding fern or leaf elements in between. Now, everyone can enjoy a lei without flying to Hawaii!
