Not really my work........
« on: May 30, 2013, 08:45:35 PM »
I often get asked to make blanks for pyrographers and this one really impressed me. She did this for some friends not having done any pyro work for 10 years. Got talent this girl IMHO.



(Why does spell check always want 'pyrographers' to be 'pornographers' ?

Thank you for sharing.

Pete,

that really is fantastic work. I'm sure you've told the Lady (you said 'she') how good it is, but be sure to let her know our thoughts on it as well.

Hi Pete
Congratulations to the lady for her design - stunning. It could not have been ease to achieve on the inside curve of the bowl. It has transformed a plain bowl into a great one.
Regards
Ken

I like the way that she has been sensitive to the grain pattern in  the bowl....by setting her design where she did, there remains within the bowl quite a symmetrical pattern in the grain....clever lady!
