Travelling, you got that one?, so much life and attitude.

If I had the means, I would get all the mugs I could. If you can't say that then you aren't a true tiki-head. That Flounder one was the best of show again. Its like two pieces of art in one (with the Shag print and all). It goes to show you what amazing artist Flounder is cause you aren't looking at the shirt, your looking at those eyes.

Still mugs for sale. Looks to have been the best Midwest show in a long while. I always feel left out of what is going on in the west-coast but look e here.

it was a great show, and the mugs were incredible in person.....so many great ones.....hope the mug cutomizing becomes part of dva's tiki show every year!

D

It definitely will. New and better every year. Just remember who started it when everyone else jumps on the band wagon! Big THANKS to Holden at Tiki Farm too, whom without, it wouldn't have been possible.

R

I got my prize in the mail today.
Thankyou so much , its awesome!!!
Hope to one day see the gallery in person or better yet have a piece in it.

Once again a huge Mahalo.
