Aloha Station, looks awesome. Zero, you are an artist using more than just paint. Lori, the final glaze job looks good to me. MDM, I will hold off eating the fish sans fruit loops.
Well, just in time, the Sinking Moai is finished (just in time). Here are a few pics. I do apologize, I realize (now) that I forgot to carve out a wall hanging hook on the back of this tile, but I hope most would put it on a shelf. Both this and the Narwhals of the North South Pacific Mug will be shipped as part of the Art Swap. Glazing turned out exactly as I had hoped (plus or minus 3 weeks- good thing the deadline was extended!) Here it is:

Top view: lighting 2 (fluorescent lighting in studio, just to give you an idea of the glaze colors):
Mike, sorry for the delay in getting this one done!
Happy Swapping! Hang10, if all of the swap pieces get held up at security, I'm happy to take them off your hands....

Almost done... just a little more to finish up tonight...
(I came down with an inner ear infection over the weekend. Woke up very dizzy on Saturday morn. On antibiotics & antivert but not helping much, so I'm kind of limping along this week.)

Presenting, the Mermaid's Grotto...
I'll probably add a few final touches & I need to paint the outside, but it's 98%+ done.
It really looks much cooler in real life because it's lit by flickering lights from the back, which don't shown well in my photo.

Very cool Kele. Looks like it's a 3D diorama thing?

Here are our artworks for the Sea Creatures of the South Pacific Art Swap in alphabetic order by the artist (sorry ZeroTiki )
I have tried to pick the one photo most representative of the art to post here.
“Sea Anemone Container” by AlohaStation ~ Florida
"Humuhumunukunukapua'a's Last Night Out" by AnthonyMaye ~ NorCal
“Fishsticks” by Cy (on the right) ~ Oregon

“Yellow-Bellied Sea Snake’s Fang”

Note, I will only be shipping one of these out. If you have a preference send me a PM in case I draw you. The triggerfish is more of an amusement than a Swap project

I got a random ER nurse to draw the names for me out of a bedpan
So the drawing is done. Because this is a Secret Swap, I won't posting the drawing results here. Over the next couple of days I will send out PMs of the name and address of the person you will send to. Do NOT contact them and ruin the surprise, also note that is not the person who will be shipping to you. If you will send me a PM when you have shipped I will let the recipient know to watch their mailbox. Let me know if you have any qquestions.
We have some amazing art this Swap, thank you all for participating. If no one else volunteers to run the next Swap I will be organizing the next one to begin this Spring and end in August.

Wow,
Everything looks awesome all on 1 page.
Thanx for all the hard work mike!
Is it me or does that bed pan look wet? 
Can't wait to see who I ship to.
Jon
