Tamarind Branch Platter |
Twelve days to go before we open the workshop for the "Muskoka Autumn Studio Tour". Twenty-six diversely talented artists will give you a glimpse into their studios where raw materials are transformed into superb art pieces. Join us on September 24th and 25th for the tour.
Brian has a large number of bowls and platters ready for the show so he has had fun making smaller raw edge bowls from unique and highly figured wood.
Raw edge bowls of Russian Olive, Mulberry, Black Cherry
He has been experimenting with Russian Olive, Mulberry and Black Cherry.
Figured Maple and Onyx Platter |
We were finally able to obtain onyx from India after a two year wait for delivery. These beautiful tiles have layers and bands of colour which range from cream to green to rust.
Brian made a few new figured maple platters with an onyx centre. Very popular and versatile, they are purchased as soon as people see them.
Brian has a week of production on the lathe before we begin the transformation from dusty workshop full of wood shavings to an open studio, ready to welcome our guests. Lots of work ahead!
