Those are very cool, Jim. I did the “Search Google for this image” thing just to try and get a bigger pic to look at and the answer popped up, so didn’t get a chance to guess. Oh well, they’re still creative.

That is very cool Jim thanks,
Why couldn’t you have given us these pics first, then maybe I would have guessed it. I thought they had somehow infused the veins of a palm with dye.

I don’t think I have the patience to glue 100 pencils together ;)

I’m just not sure how you would sand it without the entire thing turning black.

I guess you would have to go over it with a giant eraser right before the finish.

I thought palm trees at first. but it looks like pencils up close.

They are beautiful but I never would have guessed what they were made out of. Very interesting, Jim.

If you think I was saying something derogatory about you I wasn’t ,so I don’t understand the “ouch” There was no problem at all with you answering, I was not being sarcastic.
