Basket illusion

15”x5” Maple. Bottom is identical. Tried&True oil, 3 coats satin lacquer. Faber Castell black and Sienna artists pens. My guess is 40 to 50 hours.

Mark, I really like how you've shaded this with the spacing of the burn lines. Great color combination too. Really a beautiful basket!

Mark, gorgeous work! Attempting basket weave illusion is on my bucket list for the near future. I definitely will start with a simple design!:)

HI Mark - very nice piece - hey congrats on the TOTW! I don't know how I missed seeing this before --- my only excuse for not commenting on this sooner is that I've been real busy the last month or so & haven't spent much time on the site.... Keep up the great work!

Thank you very much David. TOTW was a surprise and honor. I spend most of my time in the woods this time of year so have been a bit absent myself.
