Just posting to say that Tiki Farm has been working on a mug based on my "Shrunken Tiki" painting.
Holden has sent me the early stage pics of the clay sculpt, and they have done a BEAUTIFUL job on it so far (even in the very early stages yet!) I will be able to post the clay pics tonight.

Congratulation. I always loved that painting. You must be very proud of that new baby of yours.

Thanks for all of your kind words.
Net-tiki and Aaron's Akua, I'm thinking it will be an open edition, but Holden has the last word on that.
Thanks, Raffertiki and VonTiki!
Thanks too, Chongo. I'm not really sure if it will be done in different colors, but the twine will be hand-painted in a different color than the rest of the mug.
Hala bullhiki, it's set to come out in Spring of 2005.
Thanks for all of your compliments. They made my day!

Cool mug Sam, can't wait to pick it up. My Sam Gambino painting "Consultation In Blue" is the pride of my tiki collection, your stuff is great.
