I've been sidetracked with an overload of non pen related turning jobs this year and these are the first pens I've made since last winter. It's amazing how rusty my pen making skills have gotten after just 4 months of non use.
Both pens are Cast Carved Core.
The red/black/white one was inspired by an "Ohio Star" quilt block that I saw laying around in my wife's quilting room. I had intended this to be a gift. The gifting is going to have to wait until I get my pen mojo back and I can do a little better job. This will likely end up in my wife's purse at some point in the not too distant future.
The black and white pen was based on some royalty free art from Dover Publishers. I feel a little better about the job I did on this one, but it still has room for improvement. This will end up as a carry pen for me.
