Hawaiian Tiki Mugs

My happy Tiki #1 layered on a yellow disc, palm fronds and a pale yellow oval... informing of what time it is.

the best tiki ever created. The Tiki has had a greater influence on the modern art world than many realize. The 20th century saw a rise in American’s fascination with the Pacific Islands and their native culture. Images of the traditional life of native islanders captivated the residents of the Continental U.S. and brought about a desire to fill their mundane environment with some of the iconography of the islands. Post World War II returning GI’s brought back images of the Pacific Islands and the fascination with Tiki emerged. By the 1960s Tiki could be seen everywhere. It adorned buildings, restaurants, motels and all manner of advertising. Exports of authentic Tiki could not keep up with the demand.

The Islander, was a Hawaiian style, Tiki bar & restaurant in West Hollywood, Los Angeles. Famed for it’s mid-century modern A-frame architecture, bridge entry & flaming torches. Unfortunately this slice of Polynesian Style & 1960s Americana was demolished in the 1980s. But you can still celebrate it with this T-Shirt from ryte TRACK.

A fun attractive design of “UTI” the TIKI goddess from the Tiki Room.

Being fond of mid 20th Century Tiki culture it was just a matter of time before I created a Tiki artwork. I have different things I want to do with this digitally with backgrounds so although the main subject is finished, this is only the start of the things I want to do.

First opening their doors in 1999, Burt's Tiki Lounge combined a dark, moody vibe with a serious bric-a-brac fetish, eclectic live music, and tropical drinks to create a bizarre oasis in Albuquerque‎, New Mexico. Countless acts performed at Burt's and it even made a couple of appearances on Breaking Bad. It was a true southwestern original with few contemporaries, but sadly, Burt's folded after 17 years not too long after moving to a new location which failed to capture the beloved dive bar tiki vibe of the original.

Adapted from 1950s vintage Californian style Tiki Bar napkin from Santa Catalina Island. New Waikiki has a tropical tiki summer vacation flavour. Palm trees give it a vintage 50s style mid century art feeling.

Kulia I Ka Nu'u which means strive to reach the highest. This is a Hawaiian proverb to live by and to give life guidance to those that seek it.

Get this cool tiki-themed Hawaiian luau design. Awesome gift for Fathers Day and the Big Kahuna in your life. Great to wear to the beach, on summer vacation and just walking around the islands.

I love Polynesian Tiki style patterns but don't see enough of them with mermaids so I made my own.
