Eric October encouraged the artists to post progress pics, so here GROG' crap being made:

GROG work area in kitchen, just outside of Tiki Room.

Shelves of crap in-progress or waiting to be fixed. JAVA BOBs have been there forever.

GROG dig out bowls GROG already made or in-progress. The ugly white Tiki Bob bowl with the pink face was for one of the Tonga Hut art shows way back
when GROG ran the art showsat the Tonga Hut.The greenish Moai bowl was a happy mistake putting a different glaze over a previous glaze. The small Tiki
Bob bowl is for Mymotiki and needs glaze touch ups.The greenware bowl in the middle was an experiment GROG start years ago but never finished, so GROG
decide to use it to get started. GROG decide to go in a different direction than it was originally intended.

Back in 1,000,000 B.C. when GROG last made a mold, GROG made too much plaster for the mold, and GROG (being a cheap bastard) not want to waste plaster. So, GROG grab a Tiki light
and use the leftover plaster to make a mold of the cheap tiki light. GROG pour a few tikis and attach them to a bowl, and then it sat there untouched for thousands of years.

So, this how it's looking right now on it's way to becoming a Volcano Scorpion bowl.
