That is a real work of art! I really like the effect of the metallic and iridescent paints over the india ink. How did you impress the designs into the bowl surface - carve, pyrography? The design in the bottom is so well done, if it's by hand, your hands are way steadier than mine.
Great piece!

Wow Howard! I really like what you have done here! I had the same questions as Barry as well as the bowl size. Thanks!

Barry, Since my hand is also unsteady, I rely on a laser to make designs.. Thank you for the kind words.
