This one was the result of seeing a form at a local pizzaparlor that I thought might be fun to try. What I thought I remembered about its proportions (namely that the mouthand base were much wider than normal) resulted in something that didn’t looklike what I remembered at all. When Ilater went back to see the original, I could see my memory wasn’t very accurate.
Another turner hadremarked that it “looks like it has something to say”. I got such a chuckle out of that, I decided ifI ever finished it, both the mouth and the name would have to stay.

Walnut, 16” tall and wet sanded to 800 with AO. Buffed with Tripoli followed by a coat ofRennasance Wax.
I went with AO for the finish so I could compare it with theWalnut Oil. Any preferences on finish?
