Maybe we can get another hot thread going.
Anyone else besides me scratching their heads over the choice of subjects for the Winter cover?
I look at the picture on the back cover and I am inspired and in awe. I look at pictures (most of them) inside and I am challenged to push my "art" (and I use the word loosely in applying it to my creations) to new levels. I look at the cover picture and I'm left wondering if I accidentally got a copy of the Journal of American Chainsawyers by mistake.
OK, it is wood and the bright red is eye catching and you want a cover that attracts attention, but shouldn't there be some additional criteria for selecting the cover of American Woodturner?
Was this an attempt to try and gain the attention of modern art colletors? Put something that doesn't look like a tradtional turning on the cover in the hopes of luring them to look inside the magazine?
I am baffled.
Anyone else care to share an opinion?
