hang10tiki one project at a time, step by step. Each day is fun.

Tiki Ano the lamp clay will be gone in no time.

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

Wish List #7 progress report.

I did this black velvet painting and matching mug for the Tiki Oasis 16 art show. Loki Tiki and his wife took it home.

It was based on these Disneyland tikis.

I have two wishes for similar paintings and mugs. So I started by ironing the black velvet.

Then I cleaned it well with a roller of sticky tape.

I stretched the cloth onto cardboard cut to fit the frames.

I had extra cloth and frames so I did them as well.

During the Wish List I will hop from one project to the next and then back again. I put aside the paintings for now and started on the mugs. I built the tiki on a fogcutter mug.

I make extra mugs as I go because I like to have extras just in case something cracks in the kiln.

I finished the tiki and

then I supercarved the mug.

I did some woodgrain on the tiki and now it will slowly dry for a week.

One down and many more to go. Cheers, Wendy
