Tiki carver makes art out of dead trees all over Tampa

Tiki carver makes art out of dead trees all over Tampa: The impressive Tiki carvings began appearing a few weeks ago in dead trees on public streets all around Tampa, tall and impressive Polynesian carvings of fierce-faced tikis in old palms from Ybor City to downtown to Davis Islands. Turns out tiki artist and surfer dude Jeff Chouinard could not stand one particularly ugly tree he kept passing by, so he took to it with the small chainsaw he calls "Little Precious." Chouinard liked it so much he's done 11 more, and even city officials seem to like them. [James Borchuck | tampabay.com]
