Wendy Cevola - Began on 01/10/2025 - Todd Locker's black velvet wish in progress. New photos often.

This repair request was for two mugs! The steps are: wet the bisque, add the wood putty, sand when dry. Then paint to match.

It's time to get started on the next wish list black velvet painting for Horror in Clays very own Jonathan Chaffin.

Here are all the parts to his request. He photoshopped all these parts together. This is a family request with his kids making requests too. The tiki needs to change to a front view Suffering Bastard with a citrus or cherry garnish. The pineapple needs spiked teeth. Little touches to make it special for them.

I will share the steps as these proceed.

Aloha

Wow, Lots going on here.

Swap piece (ohhhhhh my), Repairs, Now another painting

The fun never ends

hang10tiki we all know that artists never stop working, you included!

Time to post the first steps on the black velvet for Jonathan Chaffin. His wish begins to take shape. I'm going to have to start and then change what I'm doing a whole lot of times to get this close. Example: I paint the pineapple shapes and they are not right so I cover them up with a base coat of green.

If you know me, you know I love coincidences. I could have started with the tiki instead of the pineapple. But because I did it in this order when on the TV I spied a couple of pineapples I stop and take a photo to show I had one. All fun.

More steps on Jonathan Chaffin's black velvet wish. These will show how I print photos, cut them up and use them to draw out the parts of my painting. Then I did a first of many layers to block out some of the colors.

Glad to see that you're still working with ceramics, even if you're just fixing them, not making them.

Hamo, I'm also sculpting mugs and even helping Robert mold them. He's the fellow who bought all my supplies. So once he's set up he'll start making them. Back in the game!

Gorgeous work. Your step by steps are amazing- and so informative- especially watching you build layers on the velvet. Thanks for posting!

Thank you, Tiki Ano. This morning I ended up tweaking it a bit more. So here are the updated photos.

Wendy, it looks good!

Thank you MaukaHale, I am not Windy!

Thank you hang10tiki I love the countdown.

========================================

Time to do another repair: This is Jack Malley's favorite mug. A shelf fell and this happened. I fixed it for him.

Steps: figure out how all the pieces go. Wet the white exposed areas so that the glue will dry slowly. Put on a thin layer. Press the pieces firmly together. Wipe off the excess glaze. Tape pieces together with some stress to keep the pieces firmly in place. Leave for 24 hours and don't do them all in one day.

Elmer's wood putty. First, I rub it into all the cracks, then I wipe off the excess. Then I paint on more putty and let it sit overnight. The next day I sand off the excess. Then it's time to paint. I try to match the paint but since I only have a limited number of colors to mix it's never perfect. It's enamel rather than acrylic.

Painted it is a mug now for display not for use.

The difference in color between his mug and our shakers is that his is from Tiki Bob's. Ours are from Tommy Lee's Islander, Stockton, CA. I shipped his home today.

Jonathan Caffin has received and hung his painting. He's going to print the photos I posted of how I did this painting and will make a booklet to save. I love doing wishes.

Great repair job Wendy, that's amazing!

Thank you MadDogMike. It was a fun one to do.

Ryan Stowe's black velvet wish was for this bullfighter with a war god head looking like the mug below, one I made with Gecko. Use these colors from a past painting and make the war gods teeth white. OK, I'll do that.

In 2009 I saw this broach on eBay. Made in the 1940's it caught my eye. I saved a photo so that one day I could paint it. Here are the steps. This painting is currently in the art show at Tiki Oasis San Diego 2022.

Painting on black velvet requires many layers. I can't show them all but the more the better.

I have to do a lot of painting to use all the supplies I picked up in San Diego. It was a wonderful trip seeing so many friends. We have been home 10 days and we are well. Masks work. In photos where I'm with a person and it's pulled down...I'm holding my breath until I move away and pull it up again.

Stay safe my friends but have lots of tiki fun. Cheers, Wendy

Look at all the fun people you met up with at Oasis. I'm sorry we never found each other; I never found Mike either, even though we were wearing the exact same aloha shirt that day. I did stumble into GROG, which was marvelous. I think next year we need to plan a Tiki Central meetup so we don't miss anyone.

Hamo if we attend, I think that would be an excellent idea. We found MadDogMike via cell phones. We had excellent hi's and tiny visits. It was a great trip. Sorry to have missed you.

Shoot--last I knew you didn't have a cell phone. Guess I should have asked. I'll look forward to a hug next year.

Hamo, we have had cell phones since the first one that weighted 6 pounds! However, we never turn mine on ever, but we turn Dan's on if we have a pre-arraigned day and time. That's why we were able to hook up with MadDogMike. So if we go in 23 we will have to exchange numbers and work it out. I'll hold you to that hug! Wendy

Back in July I started the next black velvet painting. This one for Ron House. His idea my hands.

To start here are the helper photos from him and those I collected.

Requests were that a hula girl be topless and hold the ceramic skull mug that he has produced as a ceramic artist. The rest was left up to me.

The last photo was of my TV. I thought the picture resembled the painting I was working on! This picture was a help because I could see that my painting needed a "lift". I will fix it.

More layer and then I mixed skin colored paint and put it into containers. The last photo shows how I sand areas where paint builds up. So many layers before the painting looks at all good. I also did a breast lift!

With black velvet there can never be too many layers.

More steps on the Ron House wish. Layers are constantly being added. Photos really help since they are larger than the painting. So I can see where help is needed. Example her upper lip.

The painting continues. I decided she needs a lei. Then the shading begins. I added some flip flops. The last photo shows the start of the hanging float lights. I always have Dan check my work. He suggested wider hips. Done!

Time to add some float lights to the top of the painting. These photos are from 8/17 and 8/18/22. Lots of layers over and over again.

I drew in the nets with a paint pen. Then I painted more detail when they were dry.

Wow

Awesome Oasis photos

Feel like I was there

Thanks for posting

Like the new painting!!!

I think I just started a comment on your page with a wow! We had a good time at TO but would have been better if you and SewTiki had been there. I like that you are seeing my painting. These next photos will finish it off except for the framing.

The Ron House black velveteen wish has been inspected and he says his wish came true. So tomorrow I will frame it and photograph it some more to share. Here are the last steps.

The wish of Ron House has been granted and is ready to ship. The surprise is that some of the painting is UV light sensitive even though it wasn't requested. So I did a few photos. Ray Wyland did the last photo.

Very nice, Wendy. I really like the UV effect, especially her lipstick.

Thank you Hamo. It's fun to see where the glow shows up.

Tiki with Ray who does tiki podcasts on UTube and as Ray Wyland does excellent posts came to visit us. We took him to Macaroni Grill, showed him the Ron House black velvet, ate ice cream, let him walk through the tiki jungle room. Then he waved goodbye and headed off to the next tiki place on his list.

A Black Velvet Wish for Chad Manen. There are so many layers to painting I chose a few to show. If you have any questions, please ask.

The flash faded the images but they are close enough. Cheers, Wendy
