and there's more!


Still playing with the new material that I have, this is a pedestal with a lidded container, could be used for anything, I just love the colours in this piece.
The miniature below is a flour barrel, turned in Thuya Burl, the grain and marking in this piece is lovely, one of the nicest pieces of wood I have used to date, the photo does not show how shiny it has come up, sanded down to 12,000 grit and lacquered.
 
Finally the piece below is the start of an idea I have, wonder if anyone can guess what it will turn out to be!
Again I have used thuya burl, got to be careful now as I don't have much of this wood left.
Will post more photos soon.

 
Got to get a lot more turnings done now as I will be featured in the June edition of the American Miniaturist magazine, which is due out on May 10th.
