hang10tiki that is so adorable I just want to kiss those tiny ears. Thank you so much. Dan enjoyed that a lot. lunavideogames what a good memory you have for Dan's food habits. We are continuing tradition to see how many free deserts we can rustle up. But not all on the same day. Harris Ranch. Dan stole this pose from Tiki Hula. Billy's on the Beach. California Pizza Kitchen. We are going to the Doug Horne, little lost tiki and Big Toes art show tonight with Tiki Hula, Woo Hoo Wahine and Soccer Tiki. ========================================================================== Tiki Hula's ALL DEAD shrunken head bowl is all dry so I carved the trough into the tassel. This is where the run will flow causing a fire flow.
========================================================================== Next up I started a bowl for Tavaru Tiki and then through an error where I didn't update his email address I lost contact with him and ended up working this bowl up for Dan. It was to be a Frankoma War God Goblet with two Place of Refuge tikis on the back. Here's how far I got before I stopped and let it dry. That left it a total Frankoma Goblet because those are Joniece Franks tiki salt and peppers too. If you go to page 1 you will find the incredible story of these guys. The Hefty bags are still keeping my casts from drying out. I choose a bowl and then added clay until the bowl was rounded inside. I cut a hole in the head of the War God so that later I can place the bowl there without trapping the dreaded air bubbles. I sliced off a portion of the little tiki and then covered the edges with sticky clay and pressed it onto the War God. I smoothed the connection around the tiki. Then I did it with the second tiki.
Now it was time to affix the bowl on top. I covered it carefully with sticky clay to avoid the air bubbles. Placed and pressed down. I used a large brush to remove any excess clay that was squished out on the inside of the head. Next I did it on the outside of the head. Lastly I added what would become flames up the outside of the bowl. Now he was set aside to slowly dry.
Cheers, Wendy |
