Go get yours today! Three Colorways available!Here is a Promo piece with all the information.... http://www.tikifarm.com/tiki-mugs Here's a lil promo paragraph about the mugs.... Modfish was inspired by many things.The art of Joan Miro and Stuart Davis, the graphic playfulness and linear sensibilities of Jim Flora and Saul Steinberg,and the carvings,drawings, and work of Witco's W. Westenhaver. The colors evoke Modernist Interiors,sleek fifties murals and mosaics and even vintage glazed lamps. Modfish's style was the result of years of playing with forms,and how to best simplify them,yet still retain their essence. Landscapes,Vegetation,Animals.....all of these subjects have been examined and abstracted in sketchbooks,often to be used later in paintings... Modfish fits well into the swanky Modernist environment,which includes it's offshoots Polynesian Pop and Tiki vintage. One has only to look at the work of Ken Pleasant,Bosko,Derek Yaniger,and El Gato Gomez to understand how these two aesthetics are woven closely together.... Get Yours today! Better yet! Get all Three! Here's some views of the sides ,how they stack,and a shot of the stamp at the bottom of the mug... Here's the verbage from the TikiFarm website... Our brand new “Modfish” designed for us by Ken Ruzic is great for a variety of uses… mug, mini bowl, small planter, catch-all… there’s a lot you can do with Modfish! We chose 3 midcentury inspired primary glazes (soft coral, light harvest gold and soft avocado) and finished off all 3 colors with a deep ocean aquamarine interior. Check-out the fun added detailing in the interior! Modfish measures 4 ¾” wide and is 2 ½” in height and holds 11 ounces of liquid but is equally content holding your car keys or cotton balls or spare change or anything you see fit! Modfish also can be stacked for space maximization should you wish to store it in your cupboard for ongoing, daily use as… a great cereal bowl, for example! Get your very own Modfish now… get a set of three and own the entire series! and in the tradition of full-disclosure here's two posts with some of the inspiration that led to this lil masterwork.... I'm very excited about these,as they are a slight departure from the hardcore tiki mugs , but will get along famously with all the members on your Tikibar shelf! Mahalo!
