Making Tiki Mugs - General Tiki

I definitely agree it has to be done as a loved hobby/art not as a commercial venture (unless of course you sell out to the man!) Not that there's anything wrong with that. I have a few themes I would like to work with so I'm going to keep looking into it. I can't really come up with individual mug designs without coming up with a them that will generate 3-5 designs. I think the best bet is to do the dirty work at a cermaics store that does classes and such and has a public kiln. My aunt used to do ceramics and had her own electric kiln. Maybe I should give her a call. I'm interested in doing more than just Tiki mugs (did I say "just Tiki"?!?), I'd like to progress to the level of ceramist, doing all sorts of projects. Should one want to farm out to the Mexico's of this world, where would one begin?
