Congratulations!!!
Woo hoo LumberJocks! :)

And the banister is stunning. The sanding might have been a pain but it must have also been so rewarding as you uncovered this piece of art!

Beautiful

More of the sinuous, wonderful shapes you create. I often feel trapped by the rectilinear… you certain show the way. Excellent as always.

Ellen I look forward to every new thing you post, you are very talented.

Absolutely stunning project Ellen! But its sad that your client would want someone other than the artist (you) to finish it…which means she’ll probably have it painted! Don’t it figure?

-- Bob Vila would be so proud of you!

Beautiful work Ellen. Always a pleasure to see the form and lines of your pieces.

That is a stunning design with flawless execution. I really like the movement your design allows for the eye. Thank you for sharing Ellen.

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

I know that my client only wants to make sure this will match the stain used on the balance of the banister.

Thanks so much for all the feedback!

That’s beautiful. LumberJocks is fantastic because not only did you get a client, but I got to see some wonderful art. Fantastic.

Hopefully there will be more than just stain applied to it…I think that I would have to be there after the “expert” left to check it out in person : ) Nothing worse than a poor finish to ruin an otherwise beautiful project like this one. You’ve done a Great job indeed : )

-- When did quiet and quite become the same word ? I'm guessing about the same time as your and you're did.

I really respect folks that push through the pain to create the vision in their minds.
Yours here, is one of those special pieces.

Keep up the spirit.
Those with this talent should raise the bar!
