hang10tiki thank you, thank you very much. Do I sound like Elvis?

RVICTOR not shaving is fun for him. I get surprised every time I look at him. The feeling about you as an artist is mutual.

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

Enchanted Tiki Room Swap. After Dan choose the tiki mug he wanted me to make for him I chose the one I wanted to make for the swap.

I started with a different variety of my fogcutter mugs.

I cleaned it up and

then I began to build the tiki with sticky clay. This is the clay I cut off the tops of cast mugs. I just add some slip to it to keep it moist. As long as you keep the air bubbles out you can build anything with it.

One step at a time to build

the face and eyes and

then the mouth.

All done sculpting it.

These two mugs are now drying with one more clay project I'm making for an art show run by Tiki Roots Rocka.

Cheers, Wendy
