Beautiful job! It reminds me of a photo of the earth’s oceans taken from space. Very fine piece.

OOOoooh! Woooowww! The colors are absolutely gorgeous! It also looks like the deep sea if you could see miles under the ocean waters into the deep crevices of the earth. (I can almost see mythical sea creatures swimming around!). I think this one is one of my top ten favorites. Don’t ask me which ones are the other nine, as having to decide will make my head hurt.

I especially love the first shot. It almost looks like the Great Lakes, on an alien world. You pull such amazing paintings out of of your pieces these days.

Do you sell your works? I know you have exhibitions, but I was wondering if you’re a millionaire yet off these things. I’m not asking for me. I’m too poor :) I can see someday in the far-off future, though, a show like the antique roadshow with the expert saying “Wow, do you know what you have here? This is an original 2009 trifern! Very rare, and very highly sought out. I think a piece like this would fetch at least $250,000.”

Joe, this is another beautiful piece. Keep posting these. Every time I see one of your posts I wonder why I have not added a lathe to my tool collection. It looks like you sure are having fun.

Love the color! I am a turner too, and I like being challenged and inspired to step out of the natural/traditional forms. Keep it up! I really enjoy what you create!

-- I hope the volume of shavings one creates is directly related to the probablility of one's success, cuz if so I've got it made!!
