A devout family man and master craftsman, Gecko created South Sea Arts 30 years ago, selling small carved tikis and has now expanded his repertoire to include collectible tiki mugs, authentic Polynesian art, artifact replicas, and custom work for individual and corporate clients. Born on the islands, Gecko’s love for art started at an early age of 8 years old. Gecko has since gone on to carve pieces for various musicians, restaurants, and homes all over the globe.
