>Alan, thanks for posting that picture. Beautiful box elder bowl, the red pattern looks like it is layered, maybe your finish will prevent the red from fading. Did you cut this tree down or buy it?

>Alan:

I prefer the shape of this one to the "last bowl". This has a much more gradual, rounded form, while, to my eye, the "last bowl" has too many transitions, which, to me, fights with the beauty of the wood.

Now, get them all out of the sun!

>Well, there seems to be a lot of light coming into the windows in your pictures!

We have sun here, just doesn't seem to have much warmth to impart.
