Three new forms

[George Watkins]

Hello folks

here are three pieces which I've completed recently

ovoid form with metal schlag effect gold leaf 5"wide by 5 1/2" tall

spalted beech form/vase 6" wide 8 1/2" tall

ovoid beech form 6" wide by 7" tall

Don't really know what to say about the first one...guess since I'm not really sure about the material used I'll just say "Cool!"


The timbers used for the remaining, WOW! Spalting is always just a mystery until turned through the black lines...I think you stopped in just the right spot.

I recall you saying that you were going to write an article about making small forms or boxes.

did that ever happen, and where would I find a copy?

thanks!
