WOOD AND FLOWERS

This little bowl (4" wide and 3" high) is almost finished, I will be removing the tenon on the bottom and sign it first.
I do love the beautiful grain and deep color of this wood;  it is from a little chunk from a tree my sister cut down at her home in NY and I rescued it from the firewood stack!  
This is going to her for a thank you!
And the 'odd' flying saucer bowl I made last week has had a bit of work done on it;  I cut off the flange 
and  I like the way it looks a lot better.
A bit chipped off the side where there was a knot and I just smoothed off the dip and like what it adds to the look! 
I took a little tour after filling the bird feeders and enjoyed the flowers--your hibiscus,
blackberry lilies,
Passion fruit vines,
and even a fruit from the vine, 
Crinem, 
and one of the many pagoda plants!!!!

  3. What beautiful bowls! I always wonder what the first person who ever saw a passion fruit flower thought of it. It looks very alien to me. They are a bit scary, pretty but scary.
