Coloured Bowl
This a new creation, which is made from Ash, 10″ diameter and coloured with Yellow, Green, Red and Orange Spirit stain. The ash was a crotch piece, and produced interesting grain throughout the piece, this was the reason why it was coloured. The colouring technique used was not to hide the grain, but used to enhance

First for 2012
This is a first for me, i do not normally colour wood, however i thought i would have a go, it took just over a week to make, majority of it was the drying time of the ebonising lacquer due to the cold weather. It stands 8″ high, and is highly waxed and polished, giving it a ceramic look
Made from Lime, which has been ebonised
