It can be male or female. • Draw the same figure from the side and back. • Glue several balsa foam blocks together with Elmers glue. Allow to dry overnight. • Lightly sketch design on balsa blocks with pencil being careful not to carve out design. Design should be on ALL sides.

  12. Carving & Painting • Begin gently carving design with clay knife. Work on all sides. • Smooth and round out carving with emery file and clay knife. • Gently brush off all dust with a clean, dry paint brush. • Mix colors of acrylic paint on shiny news paper ad sheets or in a styrofoam tray. Use only a small amount of paint. Thin paint with water. • Paint Tiki. Allow to dry over night. • If desired, gloss with polymer gloss medium.

  13. Writing your story • Write a 250 word myth about your Tiki. • Include country of origin, history, and an interesting story about what your Tiki does or represents. • Design a cover sheet for your myth.
