recent bowls

[Nathan Hawkes]

Just wanted to share a few more pictures of bowls I've been working on over the holidays.
These three bowls are all from the same tree; red maple, with lots of burl and spalting. The finish is antique oil. the bark edged bowl is about 15", the other two are roughly 12" diameter.

[Russell Eaton]

Nathan those are beautiful. I am amazed at how thin you got the natural edge bowl. Great job and thanks for posting.

That NE maple with the bark is awesome. I don't remember ever seeing a NE one I liked more on the inside!

[Roland Martin]

There is some amazing grain and figure in these bowls and very fine finishing. The bark-edged bowl is an obvious winner in my eye, but all are very nice bowls. you do some very nice work!

These are beautiful bowls. But, I want to add something too - I really love the next to last picture in the first set of bowls! That is one striking shot there, with all the rich colors and grain of the bowl and the black background. Should be printed off, mounted in a frame, and hung on the wall, imho.

Those are some really beautiful bowls. Really nice woods used.

[Ted Calver]

Really nice work!! The wood is spectacular in all of them, but the bark on natural edge is my favorite. Thanks for posting.

[David DeCristoforo]

These are all really nice. I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite although the thinner ones are appealingly delicate.

[Mike Peace]

Beautiful bowls and great finishing with the AO.
