This week fellow artist and friend, CW Stern<\/strong> and I joined forces to create a turned vessel. It’s fun to push out into something different, but for me this was not exactly new as I actually began my artistic\u00a0murmurings\u00a0with a lathe and chisels of my own all those many years go in Eastern Canada – we’re talking 1969 in Waubaushene, Ontario, where the next bus stop north was an Indian village and I had to shovel three parking spaces to end the winter with one.<\/p>\n

So, behold a collaborative effort: design by me, all the rest (and I really like this part) by Chuck.\u00a0First he turned the basic vessel and I penciled on the pattern to be cut away meticulously by Chuck’s ultra-fine dentist drill. You can’t really tell in these photos, but the walls are very thin. The result is quite interesting, I think.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This hollow form vessel is a little over 8″ tall with only a 1 3\/8″ top opening where all that wood came out of. Walls are about 1\/4″ at the thinnest place. Chuck is offering it at $350.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shipping adds bit more depending on your zone, and if you’re interested please email me.<\/a><\/p>\n

I think all this started a few months ago when I joined forces with another friend, drum-maker Tom Stewart<\/a> to create a one of his amazing instruments. He built the drum and I embellished the outside with paintings of alpine ptarmigans. “Feathered Feet” was blogged about here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I think this is what a vibrant group of artistic friends do, they sort of feed off each other, and one of the real reasons Nancy and I live here. Not only are we surrounded by Olympic Peninsula nature, but an amazing array of artists.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading this week.
