Popular Post Steve Krumanaker Posted October 15, 2018 Popular Post Report Posted October 15, 2018 I really like turning maple, many times with the intention of embellishing it as the grain can lend itself to that. Now and then however you stumble into a piece that would be a crime to embellishment at all. I feel I hit the jackpot on this particular piece of wood, at least as far as it having beautiful grain. Didn't put my normal zentangle pattern on the bottom of this one, the grain was just too spectacular. Hated to even sign it but found the "plainest" spot I could.

Aside from the minor detail...WOWZERS!! I'm not sure I have the adjectives to adequately describe the splendor of that grain. It is multi-dimensional with unbelievable depth. A beautiful piece deserving accolades. Thanks Steve. Cal and Steve Krumanaker 2 Quote
