  1. Figured Maple and Tulipwood Lidded Box

    Figured Maple and Tulipwood Lidded Box

    This box is a fun idea on how to dress up the tops of lidded boxes. I got the idea from a fellow OVWG member. There are many choices/combos one can do!

  9. Pinocchio’s Sister

    Pinocchio’s Sister

    Pinocchio ran off to a new home in Texas. However I’m guessing many of you didn’t know Pinocchio had a sister. Yes and she has the same bad habit. Here her hackenberry body with a bloodwood accent has an 18” cherry nose. But she wasn’t alway like this as seen in the following picture.

    Spring Tulips

    Spring Tulips was inspired by some craftsman style pottery photos I ran across. Breaking from my usual mold I decided to try some new ideas which included my first attempt at doing feet on a piece. The field texture was done with a tiny carbide ball tip. The colors are mixed TransTint dyes...
