It was @john lucas turn this week. His computer in under the weather, so he emailed thru his trusty cell phone his choice of TOTW. Below os what John said:

I pick Skyline Platter #2 By Norm Cloutier. As I go through the gallery, a lot of extraordinary pieces stand out. So the choice becomes which one you keep going back to. The Skyline caught my eye because at first, I'm just interested in the texture of the border. Then upon closer inspection, you realize there are buildings. Lots of buildings. Then you notice the windows that are rectangular and you have to wonder how many and how long it took to do them that well. Then you back off and take in the entire Skyline. How fun is that. Excellent Work Norm.​

Let me be the first one to congratulate Norm! Congratulations! What an amazing piece. What I like the most is like John said, it's like Pandora's box, the more you look, the more you find. Well done! Aloha from Maui
