In 1978 a young 19 year old artist took a walk on the shoreline of Cocoa Beach, Florida. Postive and determined, he knew right then that he would be devoting his life to his art. There would be no turning back.
Excited about his new found carving ability the artist named Ed had a vision, and that vision became ED'S HEADS. Since then ED'S HEADS has become a household name in the Central Florida area. His contemporary tikis combine the original Polynesian style with new whimsical expressions creating a tiki that sets Ed apart from other tiki carvers.
As seen on the Photo Archives page, Ed's tikis have evolved through the years. His carvings have decorated hundreds of businesses and homes. Ed has been featured on national televison on the program PM Magazine, and recently on HGTV's Offbeat America. His tiki is featured on the cover of recording artist Leon Russell's album Solid State. In 2004 he was featured in a book of self taught Florida artists titled Extraordinary Interpretations, by Gary Monroe of University Press. It is available at Barnes and Noble, and Books-A-Million.
Ed is always looking for DEAD cabbage or sabal palms. He'll remove any standing DEAD trees for free. Contact him for more information. Ed does NOT carve live trees of any kind!
