It is gorgeous! Could you post a side view? I would love to see it at that angle. I don’t know how you coax that wood to look so incredible, Michelle! It is always a treat to see!

Hi Michelle super piece. You are on to something with this piece. I think it will open a few more ideas for the negative space theme you are busy with. Keep up the good work, at this rate we will be calling you the Queen of negative space in wood turning. Kind Regards Tamboti

Evolution is a good name for this, you have really evolved a new idea and are streching its parameters with
each new project. Looks wonderful and makes the eyes try to see the circles on the back, while the spirals
on the front twist the imagination. I think that this is wonderful piece of eye and wood candy and wish that
I could make something similar.

Simply beautiful, stunning in all respects.

Spectacular from the front but, as “scrollgirl” suggests, other views would help one to form a more complete assessment.

Slightly more depth and a more open feel to it.

Another winner, Michelle.
