These... . mugs.. . . are.. . . GREAT!
As others have said already - killer style! Love the lines and motion in your mugs. Man - the hand-built mug renaissance continues to amaze me with wonders! Mahalo for sharing your work - and keep the post coming!

Thanks fellas, I appreciate the kind words. This positive
energy is keeping me focused on my new work.
Zerotiki, Thanks man! I saw Herman when I was down for the car show.
He looks a little beat up. better get in there and spruce him up.
Notch, What can I say but thanks! Your art is killer. I cant wait for T09.
VanTiki, thanks a lot, Your mugs are the bomb. Ive been watching the VanTiki
revolution happen. You are a true craftsman.

Freakin' exciting work, big guy. Love the "Chop" squarehead, you have to mold a lot and knock out a series for Oasis! Keep it up or we're gonna come and GET YOU!

Cammo, Sam, Greentiki, Iokona, Robb and Tipsy, Thanks a lot!
I appreciate all the comments. I'm working hard on my stuff
for Tiki Oasis. Hope all of you will be there.
Tipsy, I can build you one or you can make your own,
either way is cool. Thanks for the props.
Here are a few pics of past work I dug up.
This is my tribute to Leroy from his picture in
the book of Tiki.
Here is my 10 footer my sister hijacked from me.
This raku piece was inspired by the removal of my wisdom teeth.
The Ole Man O' the Sea.
This painting is called "Mikel & Korey", Its about my cousin and
and I fighting over cars when we were kids.
This skull is called the "Bulk".

i'd rather you build me one of those pinstripe tikis.....how much do you charge and how tall is it??....what sizes and materials can you build it out of....i think it would be cool as a stand alone carving of wood , or foam....
and i won't be at hukilau so i'm gonna miss out on a chance to get something of yours....

"This raku piece was inspired by the removal of my wisdom teeth"
That's sick and twisted (in a really cool way!) Great work MP

I agree with Mike on the wisdom teeth piece.
Very creepy cool. Looks like something out of a Tim Burton
movie like "beetlejuice". Killer work!
