Collaborative piece for Bill and Denise Tilson by Bill and Diane. The wood is Bradford Pear harvested 1-1/2 years ago, rough turned cored, sealed, bagged and dried. They were finish turned last month and sanded through 400 grit with sealer between coats. The Blackwood piece was turned and carved to fit the base of the upper bowl and the rim of the larger bowl. Diane then applied her woodburned Ruby Throated Hummer and flowers to the small bowl, followed by 3 coats of Waterlox and the Beall Buff System. The large bowl is 12" x 3.5" and the small 7.5" x 1.5". They now reside in the Tilson Gallery.
