Love the figure in the wood, your color work and really like your carving! Very clean and with the great looking finish - appears gem-like! Excellent work Joe! Thanks for sharing!

Wow this is spectacular. I just love the wood and the carving.

[John Keeton]

Joe, you do some wonderful coloration on your work, and the form on this is great! Someday......someday....I want to try one of these carved/reeded pieces.

[Steve Campbell]

Joe I really like the carving. It must take a long time to get that just right.

That's a very cool piece Joe.

I am not a dye guy but in this case the dye accentuating the grain along with the carving give the piece an almost alien feel.

Very eye catching.

[Joe Landon]

Thanks for all the kind remarks...

Truly a beautiful and inspiring piece, Joe! Thank you for sharing!

[David DeCristoforo]

Wow! That's an amazing piece of wood. The piece is very reminiscent of John Jordan's work. It's beautifully done and the figure in the wood really sets this one apart.

Joe, You do amazing work. If I recognize your style correctly, you post a lot of your turnings "on another forum" where I lurk on occasion. I have saved so many pictures of your turnings as inspiration that you have a separate folder on my hard drive. Way to go and thank you for continuing to post and inspire.
