Hey guys, I know I don't post much but here are a couple of pieces. I am not very good at taking photos so I never feel like doing it. I feel that the photos do not represent the pieces well so I tend to procrastinate. I posted these on another forum so some of you may have seen them. One is the lidded hollow form which I am going to give to my wife for her birthday this Sunday. It is a piece of Claro Walnut with hard maple finial and base. The finish is CA for the body and satin gel poly for the final and base. I was wanting not only the contrast of the wood but also of the finish. It is about 7 1/2" across and about 12 3/4" high. The other is a bowl I finished last year. It is a mesquite root ball with the worm holes and bark inclusions filled with resin and pigments. This is one of my favorites. I really like the colors of the wood and the resin combined. The finish is in lacquer wet sanded, buffed, and hand polished. It is about 9 1/2" in diameter and about 4 inches deep.
Thanks for looking
