hang10tiki that work day was so long that I couldn't touch those heads yesterday. So I did other tiki clay work and had some fun out. Cookies...I had forgotten about those cookies. Iscah I had some non-fat milk. TikiRootsRocka I need to go check up on your work again. I wouldn't want to miss your work. It was good to see you at DTB's. littlegiles I've got photos for you below. I just noticed my Zombie's Torch mug on your logo. That was really fun to see, thank you. TikiAno I love those Woo Hoo's. hang10tiki is that GROG hanging out in my garage? GROG GROG GROG Your post is now up to three times the first one. Three times as good. hang10tiki What the?! We started off our day with a trip to the new Mahalo Tiki Store. They are still in the process of hanging wall art. My photos do not show it all. Here's Dan with Mrs. Mahalo Tiki aka Mary. I spied some of my Moai sculpts by Roge. Even better some of my work in a glass case! Dan bought a Mahalo Tiki logo T-shirt and a made in Hawaii shirt. We were their first customer at the new store. I made sure there was a dollar bill in the money I handed over. Maybe it will be framed. Then we drove on to Folsom California for lunch. Gold dredging has left a lot of damage along the American River and next to the city. It is interesting to see. At Casa Ramos Dan ran into his friend. The two most interesting men in the world. Progress Report More work on the Sacramento Crawl mug due in October. I started the mouth. The clay is so hard I did it a small block at a time. I can't match the mouth perfectly because I need to be able to mold it. So the lips go straight back. I could use a Tiki Ano trick and press the inside of the mouth down once I have it cast in slip and out of the mold. I'll try it. It's really important to look at it from every side. Once I got the lips in place I can see that the head will be taller than what I have here. I'll add more clay to the top. This will be a huge mug. Here I started adding clay to the sides of the mouth. Once it was built out I used my label scrapper to cut off clay and to shape the mouth. Done for the day. The mouth is not done. Thank you for checking on my progress, Wendy |
