Wish List #8 this Tiki Bob is the wish of Cole Unger. It is his first and only Tiki Bob mug.
This photo is without a flash so you can see the depth of the carving better.

This Tiki Bob Cat wasn't a wish. I just make Bob's on and off during the Wish List.
Update: I decided that the cat didn't look enough like a Tiki Bob since the face wasn't a classic white. I fixed that. A better Tiki Bob Cat. [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2018-10-15 13:32 ] |

Wish List #8 the Bumatay Mermaid Bowls. Number 1 was made last year for Dan but sold to Karen Nichols
Number 2 is for Alex Dulude. I forgot to take my black velvet photos of this one.
Number 3 is for James Dinwiddie II
Number 4 is for Lee Scott aka Tiki Lee
Number 5 is for Ken and Kim McCormick.
Number 6 is for Eric Allred. I've been learning while doing these. Sculpting is the easy part. Glazing is really hard. sometimes you can't get the glaze in place or when you do it then travels as it fires. Check the hair where it reaches the shoulders. I re-glazed this several times and in the end I had to paint hair around the base. Eric was fine with it. I wish I could have done better. I will never make hair with an under-cut again.
Number 7 is for Roger Scott.
Number 8 is for Alex Reaney.

I love doing Papua New Guinea Tiki Bob's. Here's a new one.
I decided that the PNG Bob didn't look right without the classic Tiki Bob white face so I fixed it. A better Tiki Bob from Papua New Guinea. SOLD! Since I had to also fire it again I added more color to the Cassowary whisk broom. [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2018-10-15 13:35 ] |

The Sacramento Crawl mug for October 5th, 6th, and 7th, 2018.
A friend posted photos showing how the little side pots look when lit. She used bread soaked in liquor. She said the flames lasted a very long time. Now it' looks like a real volcano. Just add some dry ice to the inside and it's really going to be fun.

hang10tiki thank you. This is all so much fun. ============================= Before shipping this painting, off to little lost tiki aka Ken Ruzic I updated his hair color. It now hangs next to a painting done by Big Toe which is also of Ken. 4/16/2011. His hair was darker when I did this painting of him.
I haven't done many paintings but when I retire from ceramics this is what I will do with all my free time. Wendy [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2019-04-24 09:27 ] |

Sandbartender that's so much fun to hear. I've watched it a few times myself. It was fun to see Dan walk by and pull up his pants and then a little while after our neighbors cat walked by. I like those kinds of moments best. I'm so happy you like the BV painting. It's fun to have it done a year in advance. OceaOtica ah, right back at you! Thank you. Wendy |

Catch up's on a whole lot of Tiki Bob's and Wishes filled. I'm still working on glazing Wish List #8 phase four. Each lamp is cast as a blank and then I add clay to the sides of the tiki and then I hand carve it all the way around and I also carve a unique top which is removable for the wiring to go in. This was done for Alexis Antonio.
This Hot Tub Hula Girl was done for Andy Baron. One of these was done for Arthur Vasser.
This orange super carved Tiki Bob was done for David Kappadahl.
This Elvis Fun Fake was done for Chippy aka David Nelms.
This huge bowl was done for Fred Ferrer. This Elvis Fun Fake was done for Vance Klinke's wife Janae.
This Frankoma War God mug was for John Markovich.
This Disneyland Tribute to the the brother of MaukaHale was copied as a wish and is to hang behind MaukaHale's tiki bar. I hope it brings back all the best memories for you. This was taken home by Doyle Rockwell who lives around the corner from us and is working on his and wife Rachael's tiki room.
This supercarved Tiki Bob was done for Scott Nosenko.
Cheers, Wendy |
