My selection for turning of the week is Chinkapin Oak by @John Dillon. This is a small hollowform whose carving, color, and texture caught my eye.
I especially like the asymmetric placement of the leaves on the ribbons that follow grain pattern symmetry,
and how rim of the emerging vessel follows the grain to frame the leaf carved on the shoulder,
and how the rim goes up above the grain to better frame the leaf carved on the top. A nice touch.
“Pear hollow form. About 4.5” tall and 4” wide. Wood burned, carved and acrylic paint.”
