I did a smaller version of this a while back, don't remember if I posted pictures or not. Anyway, this bowl is just over 12" diameter. LOTS of time invested and to be invested in this one. I really enjoy it though, the glass of wine and the view from the patio don't hurt either.

 

This is done in layers at different heat settings. The first layer is done all around and most of the second as well. It will probably get at least two more layers at increased temperature before I do the rim pattern and finish the bottom.

Nice looking Steve.  Doing the burning outside must be a big help.

Fantastic!

 

In my mind, nothing beats being able to enjoy the out of doors while woodworking.

I believe it is actually therapeutic!

Too warm here for that outside stuff. Must be a large imagination behind that pattern.

I like that,Steve, really imaginative and original . Good job too.

Not enough wine in France to stimulate my creativity like yours....and if there was, well I'd be in an ICU Burn Unit

Your woodburning is just phenomenal.
