I am still on the flowers

I also have another piece semi completed, and also with flowers.
It's gourd shaped vase design with lots of pyrography involved. I have done the layout, traced out the design and have started doing the burning. Incidentally the lines going through the design will be gone by the time I am finished. It's a left over from another design idea:)

A productive week

A couple of layers of dye later and we're heading for completion with this group. See a post or too back for the raw wood comparison.

I have completed the rough shaping of the new flower vessel. This section was done with a 8 mm dia ball burr. The next step is to get the different heights of the flowers done.

Another flower vessel

I have started another flower vessel. This time there are 3 flower sizes, the design is based on a real flower and there are multiple levels. What you see is the design burnt onto the piece. Now to remove the gaps between flowers.

A splash of colour

I am playing with colour. This is the first coat, the middle one has already started being sanded back. All turned from Jacaranda and the tallest is about 75 mm (3") See the previous post for the raw turnings.
