Once you put liquid in there, tobunga, it's going to look like the Moai is "whizzing in the pool".

Mahalos, mymotiki! Glad you like my moai bowl!
Grog, it'll only look like wizz if there's a yellow colored cocktail in the bowl (I hope!)
Here's an in-progress shot of my next bowl, in the shape of the Rapa Nui island...
...more to come soon (I hope!)

Looking forward to what will be my first of hopefully many opportunities to show some of my paintings and be a part of such a cool group of artists at the beloved Tonga Hut.

That loks great, Amy. We're looking forward to having your art in the show.
Artists, you only have three more weeks before the show, so get you butts going on your art if you're going to finish in time for July 9. We'll also be doing the online art show again the day after (July 10) for you out-of-towners and anybody else who wants to show off their Moai art.

On 2011-06-26, The Tiki Central Times reported:
Grand Member Charged with Depiction of a Moai in an Unstoic-like Manner –
Fraternal Order of Moai Vows to Retaliate
Tiki Central member MadDog Mike of “15 miles from Mexico, 60 miles from Arizona, and 100 feet from Hell” has been indicted for his portrayal of a drunken Moai with his mug entitled “Party Like It’s 1399”. MadDog states he was inspired by the similarities between the Moai topknot and a lampshade, he further stated “Somebody had to do it, might as well be me”. The mug was created for GROG’s upcoming Moai Madness show, authorities refused to comment when asked if GROG would be charged as a co-conspirator…

Got some cleanup to do as it dries (funny how you notice the flaws more in the photos than you do in real life). I should be able to get it dried and glazed in time for the online show July 10th.

GROG plead the 5th. If worse come to worse, GROG turn state's evidence on MadDoggy.
Awesome mug idea. You're right, somebody had to do it.
