Tiki With Ray by Ray Wyland on fb, U tube and a thread by Hamo is wonderful. He showcases tiki homes and bars. He had done three interviews with us alone. I decided that I needed to do something nice in return. I hope it works. Here are the steps.

I'm making him a mug with his personal Tiki With Ray logo on the front.

I printed it on paper which I dunked into water and then stuck onto the side of the mug.

I used a sharp point to press through the paper and into the clay.

I looked at this for awhile and then decided that carved wouldn't work it needed to be 3D.

So I added clay and

then more clay.

Close up of the face. I can see that when I sand this I will reduce the size of the upper lip.

I hope that when this is glazed it will look like the paper copy.

I have many projects in the drying stage. Wendy

Years ago I painted some pineapple bowls for Dan. He picked out three tikis.

All these years later Ocea Otica aka Cass asked for art he could turn into a free coloring page. He did his own art too. He took my paintings and made these. You can Save As and print them for coloring while confined at home.
