hewey, the range of stuff you churn out is amazing - and at such a fast rate it's a bit concerning! (are you sketching away at your pad 24/7???)
also, there are plenty of tiki-heads down syd way, i think once a month there is a dj (i think his name is dj mai tai) who spins cool tunes at a regular venue <name escapes me atm>... check out the new Outre gallery in surry hills i think (their main gallery is in melb) for cool books, art etc, and also the latest on stuff like where Dj mai tai is at etc etc..
cheers, keep up the cool art!

Thanks Harro. Yeh, the Outre Gallery is my next stop! I want to play around a little bit more, and see if i can 'break into' the gallery with my art. They sound like cool people.

Well, the farm isnt interested in producing the mug. Heaps busy, and not what theyre looking for. Im bummed, but I understand. Shit happens. One door closes, a window opens, you know the drill.
Im still keen to get this mug produced. Might even have a go myself, you never know.

Hey Hewey, take a ceramics class at your local arts center. Then produce your mug/s. Once you get the mold made, you could rent the kiln at some party ceramic store. They don't turn away extra income.

Hey man-don't be too bummed about the Tiki Farm deal. DIY is the way to go! Keep control of your stuff all the way.

Hey hewey, just keep creating stuff and posting it here. You have a good imagination. One design may not be the ticket, but the next one may be... you never know.
