hang10tiki you are so right. This way he only yodels half the time.

====================================================================

Tiki Atari's kickstarter project has his mug glazed in different ways. I was hired to do 23 mugs for him.
The first 9 were to be done with my (8 hours) fine tuning and then glazed in the same glaze as the Tiki Farm version.
While these dried before the next step I started the next three. He said I could choose how I did them including the glazes.

These are the glaze combinations that I picked out.

I decided to do each in three colors. An under-glaze brown for the pier and tiki and then a blue and blue-green combination for sky and water.

After I painted the pier and tiki I wiped off some of the glaze so that these areas will also take on some of the other colors.

Tiki Hula is always amazed how a glaze that looks brown will turn to blue or orange to green.

The chunks will be spots or runs of color.

The blue-green in each of these glazes are the same but they are so different out of the jar.

Here's the lineup of each mug with the glaze that was painted inside and out.

These will be very different from the first 9. My hope is that they look really good.

Tiki Atari you gave me a huge challenge. Wendy
