Box Elder Burl Hollow Form. Another in my series of experiments with the Chris Pytlik dye technique. Quite a bit of movement around the bark inclusion after turning. Around 6" (15cm) tall. Finished with EM6000 waterborne lacquer. Chris does not like Box Elder Burl due to the bark inclusions, but I like the interesting effect they add to the piece, even if they distort the perfection of the surface.

Hi Eric
When I saw you at Chris' demo I knew it was only a matter of time until you posted some more nice pieces.
Looks like fun
Hope to try after the spring shows

Thanks everyone.
The Chris Pytlik demo was one of my favorites at Totally Turning, so Greg was right, just a matter of time until I gave it a try. This piece of Box Elder Burl was bought from Bad Dog Burls at the show.
