Turning 25 split bowl

Turning 25 split bowl

This piece was chosen by the Chicago Woodturners for the Turning 25 exhibit at the AAW symposium. It's another in my split bowl series, maybe suggesting I have a split personality. Whatever, this shape has a lot of possiblities so I intend to continue with it.
It's a bit over the top, as the detail photo shows, but it was a lot of fun to make. From what I've seen of the other entrants, I'll be in extremely good company and am honored to be part of it.

African mahogany, maple, holly, silver paint

7"Wx7"Hx2 1/2"D
It's oval. I need to take side view shots of these pieces so you can see the overall shape. Next time I will.
Thanks for the comment.
