Mahalo everyone!

Leleliz - You wouldn't be impressed with the slapped together shape if I took a photo of it at that stage! The other students in the class were exchanging concerned looks while the odd mug took shape :)

Kenny - Mega Mahalo!

Brad - the photos are killing me! Once I get my normal life back I gotta follow up on those sign quotes...

Babalu - You are very welcome!

Wanted to share a write up on my mugs (and me) in the current issue of Honolulu magazine. Good news for you mainland folk: the article is online!

I was really happy with the way it turned out. I was interviewed/photographed months ago, but they kept pushing the story. The writer (who is the Managing Editor) had to convince the staff that I wasn't making ABC store plastic tiki mugs in my studio :) The best part: they used one of my mug photos FULL PAGE for the magazine's table of contents. I squeaked with delight when I saw it!
