busy weekend

This weekends efforts - a couple of elm platters, about 12" square - can you see the faces looking out - spooky!

If the colour is accurate that 2nd one would look great as a wall plaque. Looks l;ike it's on fire. Both look good but that one really appeals to me. Lovely wood.

If anything the bottom is better, i think

The beauty is all there in the wood, all we do is make it visible.

Lovely pieces Pete,
it is interesting how different people look at things in different ways.
I saw a puppy dog, or maybe an infant in the womb.
Either way, wonderful wood.

Reeally good work. I can tell how good it is because my wife doesn't normally like square turned objects, but really doesn like these.

Let's hazard a guess as to their saleable worth.... I'd say at least £75 each in a decent gallery - may be the same or £60 or so on a web site.

Another case of the interpretation of a simple form achieving the maximum potential from a gift of nature well done Pete.

Such a crying shame we have lost the bulk of this wealth of natural beauty to a pernicious little fungus, lets hope we can do more to block the current pest having a go at our native fauna.
