Autumn

I was not sure about the pattern to start with but when applying the last coat of finish a friend came in and asked how much when I told them they brought it before the varnish had dried need I have worried.
This measures 8" X 2" made from field maple sprayed with ebonising spray and the leaves were done with Jo Sonja iridescent paints and then acrylic satin spray. I turned and sanded the three little feet to help lift this piece rather than my usual flat type bottom.
I ended up taking this photo in sunlight to highlight the pattern

C and C welcome

That's really nice.
Very interested as to how you do the "feet"?

Thank you.
The feet are simple to do just turn a ring on the bottom making sure that when you remove the centre material that it is the same depth as that on the outside of the ring. Now remove the parts of the ring to leave three feet you will need to do some hand sanding here to blend it all together. Three feet are always best to make sure the bowl sits nicely on whatever surface you place it on
