Some blue dye and the curly Tochi wood, I'm not sure how this worked, but it is all an experiment......... :dunno:

Just a little one, this is again the Tochi wood, which has a lot of curl and some spalting too. Coated with Watco and let dry a week, then buffed.

Cheers!
 
Stu,

I think the shapes of the platters are lovely!! I particularly like the footed, spalted one. If I was buying a platter at a show or fair, I'd be taking that one right quick! The blue one .... I dunno' about the colouring ... but .... it's just an opinion, and I'm sure no artist. Maybe I'd have to see it in person.

cheers eh?
 
I like 'em both, Stu. I'd say the natural color one is my favorite, but you're definitely getting this square bowl thing down pat. :thumb:
 
Very nice Stu! The blue one is unexpected - but works. The natural is nice as well - I think the foot adds to it.

Thank you Joan.

I dyed it, sprayed it on using a small spray gun, rubbing it on was not consistent in the application.

Just pushing the boundaries and seeing what I can do.

Cheers!
