hang10tiki just the way I like it!

LoriLovesTiki it's so much fun. Just a thought. You could organize one in your area.
The room morphed again today with more improvements. I'll have to photograph them when I know Dan's done.

ZeroTiki puffers are cute in ceramic art, not so much in the wide. We have one that I picked up today and got stuck, ouch!

===================================================================================
Another Glazing Day

This time I glazed the peanut mug that I changed into a Moai.

We wanted it to look like the Black Islander mugs. I covered it in black under-glaze. The inside was done in glossy black.

All covered I let it dry.

The next day I wiped off just enough to make it look like the classic Islander mug.

I then painted the top and bottom rims in glossy black.

Rappa Moai ready to fire.

Next up is a hula girl in a tapa decorated bowl. I choose these colors.

I started with filling in the tapa carving.

All done.

After it dried I wiped off the excess.

Next I glazed the inside of the bowl and her skin.

Then I started on the bottom of the bowl.

I finished the outside of the bowl.

The hardest part was the bottom of her hair. I just used my finger to rub glaze in place. Remember all glazing is done three times.

Lastly I did her skirt and lei.

I put it outside to dry. It's now in line to fire.

It's really fun to get to work on these projects that have been patiently waiting for months.

Cheers, Wendy
