Along with the mugs, I was working on a ceramic piece inspired by a small sculpture I found in Palm Springs when I went out there for a wedding (unfortunately not for Caliente). While not tiki per se, it has elements that will be used in some future tiki-themed stuff. It's kind of a midcentury stoneware water buffalo.

Rear view (w/ mug collection behind (Wendy, your Bob is out of focus, but to the upper left):

Tried to keep it w/simple lines. I like the unglazed + glazed combo, this style will be used in the Cannibal Art Swap bowl I'm working on, too (photos on that thread).
