Da Supa Hip Monk Artist Proof - by Jacob Medina and Brad Parker
aka Shrunk’n Monk Custom Mug - by Jacob Medina and Brad Parker in 4 collections
These custom Shrunk'n Monk mugs feature a red glaze on the heads and leopard or cheetah hide patterns on the fezzes.
Brad calls these "artist proofs", but they were created after complete runs of this design were already sold and elsewhere he refers to them as "custom pieces" which is more appropriate.
In any case, they are extremely limited color-ways of this design.

From TikiLand Trading Company:
"Originally designed by the 2021 Gargantuas artist collective: Bigtoe, Ken Ruzic, Doug Horne and McBiff, sculpted by Tom Thordarson, aka Thor, and TikiLand Trading Co. to be released as a limited edition bowl, and with the intent to eventually release a follow-up mug with a bit wider availability, we're proud to finally introduce the NIGHTMARCHERS Mug - an 18 oz personal-sized version of it's much larger sibling!
This mug features a round/conical 'volcano' in the center of the 4 pillars, as well as designs and patterns on the walls of the conical center that are unique to this mug (as compared to the bowl which has a lava type texture).
The Hawaiian Legend of the Nightmarchers
On the nights honoring the Hawaiian gods Kāne, Kū, Lono, or on the nights of Kanaloa they are said to come forth from their burial sites, or to rise up from the ocean, and to march in a large group to ancient Hawaiian battle sites or other sacred places. The legend says the night marchers are warriors, dressed for battle, carrying spears, clubs, and some are beating war drums and blowing tones from conch shells, to announce the advancing of their march. According to the myth, they are suspended in air; their feet do not touch water or ground as they traverse through the night, and they leave no evidence of their visitations. They march in darkness after sunset and march as a group continuously until just before sunrise. Anyone living along their path may hear chanting, sounds of blown conch shell tones, and marching noises in the night. The following signs are a foul and musky “death-like” odor, and torches getting brighter and brighter as the night marchers get closer. Nightmarchers might appear during the day if they are to escort a dying relative to the spirit world."
