"OUT OF THE BOX"
"Out of the Box" is one of my personal favourites. This large,
puzzling illusion is
a very creative wall hanging measuring about 17" diameter by 1 1/2"
deep.
Made of big leaf maple.
Size: 17" x 1 1/2" Deep (432 X 38mm)

ART'S EQUIPMENT
Art’s lathe is an
Omega Stubby 750. He uses numerous power carving and
pyrography tools, plus various inks and dyes to enhance the surfaces
of his turned pieces. The pieces are often turned from wet wood,
usually local big leaf maple or cherry.
He uses small amounts of exotic woods (such as ebony) for for
accents. Most of his recent work involves hollow forms.
