For the dog lovers... a couple more plates

[Jeff Myroup]

Here are a couple more plates I have made over the last year. The first is "Romeo". 12" hard maple with maple and ebony inlay. He currently resides in Canada.

The second plate is "Teddy". I was asked to make this plate for the New Zealand Mastiff Club Specialty "Best in Show" Award. The plate is 14" hard maple, with maple and ebony inlay. The stand is cherry and steel. Teddy resides near Christchurch NZ. I am proud to say he has survived both earthquakes :)

Jeff, a very nice piece of pryography & shading & of course a very nice job on the plates with inlaying and all. Nice job.

[Jeff Myroup]

Thanks everyone. I really enjoy making these plates. Now I need to break into the other breeds.

[John W Dixon]

Of course I'm a little dog crazy right now as we just got an Australian Shepherd puppy but these plates are just awesome!

Thanks John. Australian Shepherds are great dogs. To bad you are not closer to chicago, the IKC dog show is this weekend.

[Michelle Rich]

you have earned a great big biscuit and a squeeky toy!

[John Keeton]

Jeff, I am a little late taking a look - fantastic work on these!! Getting the eyes right is always difficult on a live subject - animal or human - and, you nailed them! Great work.

[Jeff Myroup]

Thanks John. I always start with the eyes. If they are not right it goes back on the lathe to have them removed.

[Mark Hubl]

Couple more nice ones. Your pyro work is awfully good.

[Jeff Myroup]

Thanks Mark. I will let you in on a secret. I can't stipple, brand or texture.

[Kirk Miller]

Jeff those are incrredible. I am sure the dog owners will cherish them for many years.

Just fantastic! you are a talented person, but you probabally already knew that!

[Jeff Myroup]

Thanks James, but not so much talent as perseverance.

[Baxter Smith]

Great plates and great dogs! Wish I had some artistic talent beyond stick figures!

[Steve Schlumpf]

Amazing... simply amazing! Looking forward to seeing more of your work!

[Jeff Myroup]

Thanks Steve. These plates are my best sellers. I don't make a lot on them but they do support the addiction :)
