My pick for this week is Susan's Valentine Garden by @Dave Landers.

This piece consists of five rearrangeable pieces - four heart sculptures and a pedestal base.
They capture the valentine theme in a whimsical and playful way that should delight the owner.

The two rings are joined to make the heart.

I like whimsical pieces. I like pieces that can be reconfigured. I like carving done on the lathe.
I appreciate technical challenges. All of these attributes led me to pick this piece for the week.

Well done Dave!
