Dyed & Dimpled #7

[Keith Burns]

I know you guys have to be getting tired of these but I can't seem to stop. This one is maple. 5-3/4" dia. x 4-1/8" tall. Walls 1/8". Dyed with Artisan Dye. Finished with 8-10 coats of Deft spray lacquer and wax buffed. These are also my first shots with my new camera. Comments/critiques on the piece and the photos welcome. As always, thanks for looking.

[Mike Vickery]

Nope not even close to tired of the. Beautiful piece!

[Jim Becker]

What Mike said...I'll never tire of seeing outstanding work...and these are!

I'm wondering if you need to even out the lighting a little more using some bounce to get the lower front just a hair brighter and maybe a little more diffusion for the overheads. If you post on WoW, ask specifically on this and I'm sure Jaimie and or John Lucas will comment with authority on that.

[Curt Fuller]

They may all be dimpled and dyed but they're all so different that I never get tired of them. I might even give the technique a try myself. This one is another beauty and the photo looks pretty good too.

[Bernie Weishapl]

Keith that is a beautiful piece. Just keep'em coming. I never get tired of looking at them.

[John Hart]

I agree with John, Keith but the olive appears to be stuffed!

I like the shape and the dimpled rim. Keep doing the dimples

Picture - distracting dark patch middle front, that said the picture would pass my test

Always a pleasure to see more of the Dyed & Dimpled Series! Keep 'em coming!

If you do get some meaningful help with improving the pics, please share it. Photographing a piece like that is a real pain. I could never get it right without some good help.

That is wonderful work!

I have a newbie question for you. When you dye the piece do you just paint it on up to the collar or do you dunk it in a container? Is the inside dyed as well?

Thanks in Advance.

Quinn

[Keith Burns]

Thanks for the comments Ya'all !!

Quinn, I use an airbrush to apply the dye. It is the only way to get an even coating. You can also control the opacity. I mask the parts I don't want dyed. The inside is left natural wood.

[Paul Engle]

Never say tlired of looking at this gorgeous stuff....( I tried the deft lacquer spray for the first time and will post it tonite if I get my cam back from #1 daughter :confused: ), But I must say that piece is great ,the collar is PERFECT....nice work:D

[Quinn McCarthy]

Thanks Keith for sharing that with me.
