I am sure this won't appeal to everyone, but it may give someone ideas. I wasn't too enamored with this walnut bowl so I used it to experiment with a new technique. I set the bowl upside down and used a 3/8" soft artist brush to drop particles of different Pearl Ex powders from about 1 1/2'. If the powder hit directly it formed a dot, but if it hit the contour of the bowl, it fluttered down the side in a cascade of color. The inside did not work as well and it may have been best to leave it natural. When all was dusted, I sprayed a light coat of lacquer from a distance to adhere the powder. Couple coats of lacquer. Interesting effect on the sides. I will post another bigger bowl turned from box elder.
