Images from yearly exhibition

Some colourful pieces on the show by Carel Van der Merwe. I really like the fact that the grain can still be seen.















 A series of calabash type vessels by At Smit.










 


Some vessels that caught the eye - The large one is from Indian Mahogany I think

Strawberry swirl #3

I am still working my way through the Indian Mahogany in my wood pile.
Next week I'll report on our yearly exhibition here in Pretoria. If you're in the vicinity see my links for further details.

Another small hollow form (I really love the challenge) About 120 mm dia with a coat of sanding sealer.

A natural edge hollowform for a change

A natural edge hollowform - something that I do not do often. I am not sure what wood it is but was told that ot is some form of Acacia. Still some finishing touches to do though........

Some woodturning related ideas...

Marketing your product, is said to be equally inportant as the creative process itself so I have been throwing some ideas around on how to expand visibility (and sales) of my work.
One of the ideas I had was to create a print of my portfolio that I could give to prospective buyers.
What do you think?
