This was a commission piece a few years ago. I just forgot to share it. I forget the size. My best work so far.

Beautiful bowl. I like how you balanced the darker areas on the sides. Plus, it’s smiling in the first photo. :-)

Beautiful!  great choice on the placement of the pattern.
That is pretty, and a nice flowing shape too.

Missed this. I like the rotate to get a second chance to be new.

This ambrosia is pretty different, not sure if it is because of the tapering of the sides of the bowl, but the bug holes are NOT in the center of a colored flame. I only see a few, and was wondering it it was more a spalt feature, than an ambrosia, but there are a few buggy holes, it's just they are in the midst of whitewood. But they are in line with some dyed wood. Just not quite surrounded by it.

Beautiful to see though.
