Valentine pierced egg and high contrast bowl

[holmqer]

Valentine Egg - Airbrushed some hearts on a goose egg then pierced away everything else. Hearts are three different sizes.

Ash bowl with a yellow-red sunburst inside and a blue-red sunburst outside. Rim is textured and painted with black gesso to create both a visual contrast from vivid and shiny to flat black and a tactile contrast of smooth as glass to coarse. Finish is polyurethane.

Very nice egg.
I recently purchased my high speed tool and a box full of eggs to start playing around with. It is an inspiration!

Great job, well done

65GTMustang - Yay, finally someone else will be doing this and I can get ideas from you! Post pics!

Neil - So far the only egg carving that made me really stressed was
