Another bowl ? - Black Angel
« on: June 08, 2011, 06:08:36 PM »
Hi all,
a new idea what you can do with a cracked preturned bowl.
In this way you can create so many shapes I think.
This one is from Gleditschie and Grenadill ca. 30cm high.
Comments welcome, also negatives.

Cheers  Jo

Jo, like what you've done, brilliant idea as always from you, more dark than black angel maybe, love the detail. Well done.

As usual Jo, this is another stunning piece. 

I love the idea behind it.  It is great to see your ideas and they give us some food for thought.

Cheers Dave

Thanks David and Dave,
it is I think a non common piece, a upright bowl with a sphere !. And it is
unsuitable. Unsuitable ? Substitute the sphere by a sphere with a clock in it.
Do you think that's not a good idea ? Yes, you are right - a black angel shows me
the time - not comfortable. But it is very interesting and makes a great fun to
think about such objects.
Cheers  Jo

A simple bowl into a sculpture - I love the concept and outcome - there must be mileage in this as an idea to take much further.

Hi Dragonfly and Ken,
thanks for your comments. But I think I must change the title to "My angel". Why ?
I had a exposition last weekend and some people told me:
"That must be your angel. You must be a very crazy guy, because your angle is wiping the perspiration from his forehead. I answered: Yes it is."
I think a nice comment to this piece.
Cheers  Jo
