Chris,
I don't know where you've been storing your wood, but could you look after some for me?
As a first post I'll say welcome to the forum, You've made a promising start.
I will say we try to be honest, and offer constructive criticism, on form, finish and where applied colour. So please don’t think we are sometimes rude, we are only trying to be helpful.
So, for someone who’s been turning for a month, these are good. There is still a way to go to learn to see the curve (understand the form’s shape) and longer to be able to turn it naturally, but you are where we all were once so there is nothing wrong with that. But if this is you at the start of your turning, I don’t think it will be too long. Having said that you are already seeing what you want from the timber, the last photo shows that, a most unusual shape but one that works to my eye.
Your wood supply has some wonderful natural colour and spalting to it, we are all jealous.
Looking forward to your next post.
