From the Ashes

[Mike Gibson]

And now for something completely different.
Here is my piece that was accepted into the exhibit Rising to be shown in Phoenix at the AAW National Symposium this year.
The bird emerging from the body of a teapot l sacrificed to make this piece is made from Pear as is the stand. I cut out the bird, carved it, and airbrushed the whole piece. It is approximately 15†high and 5†wide. Thanks for looking Michael.

Exceptional creativity and imagination at work, Mike.

Thanks for showing us.

Did Cynthia play a part in this? She is such a wonderful talent, as well.....

Stunning! To put it mildly, I am in awe of your work.

 

[Douglas Ladendorf]

Wow, such a beautiful piece.

 

[Mike Gibson]

Thank you all for your comments. Cynthia had nothing to do with this piece except every now and again stand over my shoulder and say l think you have done that bit wrong......

WOW!!! That is really impressive. I especially like the birds side profile!
