Woody strolls across the room... kicks his left foot upon the bar rail. Barkeep, pour me something strong! The proprietor slides a shot the length of the bartop. Woody slugs the firewater onto the back of his throat, then whips the shotglass SLAM! atop the bar. Woody whispers over to Bum... See that mysterious gal in the corner? She makes me horny...

Absolutely gorgeous, the glaze looks just like dark varnished wood.
9 cm is a little less than 4 inches wide. 10 inches tall and 9 inches wide would make her a bit, shall we say...fat

Each one of your pieces are perfect, and some how, with each of your postings, you manage to destroy what my idea of "perfection" is.

Sorry Bai, just a work thing, at my job everybody calls each other dude (girls and boys) or "guys" is often used to say Hi to a group of girls, I guess it's just a "deformation professionelle".
J'apprecie beaucoup vos Mugs, ce sont les plus belle que j'ai vue sur tikicentral, a quand les commandes pour tikifarm. Votre style surpasse tous ce que j'ai pu voire jusqu'a maintenant, bravo, du grand art.
Je n'avais pas l'intension de vous offencer, c'est une vrai brise de fraicheur d'avoir enfin une fille qui nous met tous la claque!
Plein de Bisous
Tahitiki.

THANK YOU !!! I feel like I have a Big pressure now ... to not desapoint you
but I'm glad you appreciate my work!
Kenny: thank you for supporting me in all my new post. Actually.. if you only knew what happens to me this late few weeks you'll know why I disapear...
Tahitiki : no problemo Je n'avais pas mal pris du tout votre commantaire. Je faisais juste un clin d'oeuil car beaucoup (qui ne me connaisse pas encore) pense que je suis un garçon. Il semblerait que l'univers du Tiki est attaché à l'idée que seul les hommes savent faire des Tikis... et cela m'amuse beaucoup! et merci pour ce joli commentaire.
ok... so now Tiki Mama is waiting for you :

I like Tiki moma she is primitive and modern like a witco, with your own twist, nice!
and you did the mold thing for peanut Bob perfectly too,I see, congrats!
Are you taking a class, or doing it by your self, or what? tell us a little about the learning journey, please! I know it's hard in an other language, but it would be nice to know more about you and this exiting mugs you are making much aloha

thank you Clarita!
all this, is real challenge and reconvertion for me.
so I know that you all might think why do I not write that much on my topic and just show my work?...
The fact is I have several handicap :
I'm reeeeally shy! (people who know me can tell).
I'm a girl
I'm French
I'm new in the Tiki world
I leave in Paris (the opposite place from where are all the tiki party)
But I have to say that first of all, I was very lucky to know Squid. he is the most talented person I've ever met.
He gave me the opportunity to come and see for real all the magic of the tiki world. He introduce me to lot of friends. wich I hope I can consider as my friends too.
So for talking about my work... Actually It comes like an evidence...
I think I didn't have that much trust in me. And Squid pushed me as he can
so I first started in one Babalu's Clay jam (one of my favorite souvenir)
and I will always remember what Babalu told me : "girl, you have Clay in your blood".
and since it's coming from such talented person as Babalu and Squid... It came like revelation to me!
so this winter I've done a "learning glaze class" to know better what is all about.
I'm sure that all the ceramist artist can tell.. how much the "Glaze" is difficult to manage
so now..
I still want to make my proof and hope I can cross the world with my art. Since I'm stuck in Paris.
I hope this can help to know me better.
oh! and don't forget! Tiki Mama still on ebay for 14 hours now.. DON'T MISS IT!

So Bai, are you saying you never worked with clay before this?!?!?
If that's true, that makes your fantastic pieces all the more fantastic!
I would guess you did other types of art before clay, and before tiki. Could you please share any history with us?

Thanks Bai!
...Well I knew most of that, reading Babalu's thread, there you can see and read everything about your first Big Bang clay jam (I think that's how Babalu calls them..).
So i knew you are a girl (that likes to paint her nails very pink )
that you were there with squid making your first mug, the one with the little birdie and that he itroduced you to everybody
about your handicaps (you depressed me a little)
to be very shy a get it, it is a big one,
to be a girl is only a problem if you are single or are the girl of an anonimous guy (try not dating a cool tiki guy that every one respects, and have to be respected by yourself...)
to be French it's great because 50% of people in the US loooves europe (try be from south America..)
new to the tiki world (everybody were new at some point)...
But what i've meant to ask, is how you went from 0, to know everything about how to make a plaster mold? or to manage to hollow a mug like tiki moma or the hei tiki, that if you do wrong it will explode in the fire, that king of stuff, workshop knowledge, I know Babalu still explode stuff in the fires, but you seem to do everything perfect, that's what i wanted to know... how you do it!!
Thanks for taking the time to answer anyway, your work it's great and you will cross the world with it for sure!
