Thanks Bigtikidude and Tikishaker, I appreciate it!
I'm sorry Jeff the velvet was sold that night and all
the pendants were sold and given away.
I hope to start a new tiki velvet soon.

Mikel,
ok thanks for the reply.
I don't know how I missed your painting that night.
I guess it was just too dark, or I had my head in my ass.

Hey Mike,
It was real nice meeting you and your wife at the Tonga. Welcome to the "Other Crafts" area...there is always room for another mud slinger around here. Thanks again for the pendant, and I very much enjoy the Secret Society Mug I brought from you.  Is the main body on this mug of mine an extruded piece?

Thanks a lot 4WDtiki, Iokona Ki'i and Babalu. I am getting
more and more inspired everyday.
Iokona I looked through your Velvet Betty thread and your
work is great, I think your newest one (Betty 2) is going
to be the best.
Babalu, thanks for all your support. So great to meet you too.
That mug was a class assignment creating a triangle shape object, and it
was built from slabs. I am in and out of class at the college of Marin and
they do have a kick ass extruder, I should try it out more.

I love these mugs. Really clean and graphical but organic too. Very very nice.
And how could I not totally dig that exquisite black velvet!
Kudos!

Wow! Heather, thanks for the nice compliments. I am a huge fan of your work.
Your tiki paintings and Velvets are beautiful and unique. I drool over your velvets
on your website all the time, I would love to own one. All of the velvet threads on TC
have inspired me to work on velvet. I cant wait to see your art in person.
Thanks again, MP

I really get what you're doing and like how the quality fundemental design comes through in such a minimal way rather than the usual baroque-level detail that's such a part of lowbrow art.
If I had to put a term to it I'd describe your work as "Romulan-polynesian"!
