It was so exciting being in the studio the last few days with all this online tiki art show stuff happening.
Here are some pictures from over the weekend

Loading the kiln piece by piece as we glazed on, and on, and on....

I left on Saturday after finishing a marathon of painting on glazes and came back on Sunday to find a mini art show on the table

Bowana rascals kept pervin' out on the Aloha sisters whenever they got a chance. This guy couldn't help but notice how anatomically correct made this piece:

He's liking what he sees

Now that you have all been amazed at Bowana, Cammo, and Babalu's work, let's get ready for amateur hour!

My new stuff:

First, the second anniversary of The San Diego Tiki Factory mug:

This is the third mug that I have made in my brief ceramics career

I glazed the chain yellow instead of gold as a tribute to the Tiki Bob mug

All hand made, will never be molded.

Blue interior with the yellow chain to mirror the San Diego Super Chargers colors

It is SD, after all. Even though the Chargers suck and I hate them, they're still SD colors!

Next piece, the Maori Drinky cup:

This is my favorite piece. I love this little mug!

I'm drinking a Cherry Pepsi from it right now

I made it to match one of the Maoritini glasses

The one in the middle

This one:

Here's the MokoMaoritini glass:

And the third:

The SDTF vendor promo fogcutter mug:

The Coco Joe's lava inspired plaque:

Too many angles reflecting light so these pictures suck

I need to put sanding marks on the next one to make it more authentic

Or maybe just make it out of resin. :roll:

The pendants:

Tried to make these look like jade:

These guys are actually beads:

I tried to match the color of Oscar the Grouch on this one:

Rusty rock colored piece

Jade with lava background:

Polished jade on a rusty rock background:

Rusty rock on a lava background

Width view:

Well, that's everything I did. Time to start working on filling the kiln again.

Babalu: You got any pictures of the turtle without the bowl on top to show all our nice tiki friends and art lovers?

Better get to work now.
Buzzy Out!
