Tan Lines

Those colors work well together. A great piece.

Another great piece Joe! The color contrast adds a lot of character. Nice style too! I was kind of wondering do you plan your style, shape, size ahead of time…or do you just start see what turns out (pun intended)?

Certainly a great piece of Ash ! Also the two step foot is a nice detail : )

Beautiful!!

Martin, I usually look at the blank for clues; grain pattern, size, voids, color… I then form a plan in my head and start turning. The key is to go with the flow and allow the piece to take it’s own form. Too much forcing a design usually doesn’t turn out very well for me. I try to utilize a design that highlights the woods greatest features.

-- My favorite piece is my last one, my best piece is my next one.

Very nice, I like the contrast of the heart and sapwood.

Great contrast Joe, nice job.
