#moroccoblue

Morocco Blue. This might be the cleanest one I’ve done so far. Really pleased the wood has some cool grain as well. Really provides a nice depth of glow. It’s headed to Texas for a private collection. Maple with texture and color. 11” diameter by 2 3/4” tall. #wood #woodturner #woodturning #lathe #bowl #bowlmaker #bowlturner #makersgonnamake #latheart #maple #art #artpiece #artwork #custom #order #morocco #blue #moroccoblue #stl #stlouis #thewalnutlogstudio #chestnutproducts #hampshiresheen (at The Walnut Log Studio And Supply) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6RI3Omg0Ll/?igshid=njucyv8yo9d5

Headed to Chicago this weekend for SOFA 2019! I’ll be doing 2 demo rotations, one Saturday and one Sunday. Not just turning but giving an artist talk as well about my experience so far during my @craftalliance artist residency. Took some time to make a sample piece today. Been teaching this technique a lot lately and need to make sure my own work is on point. #wood #woodturner #woodturning #lathe #latheart #bowl #bowlmaker #bowlturner #bowlturning #art #artist #artistresidency #artistinresidence #morocco #blue #moroccoblue #stl #stlouis https://www.instagram.com/p/B4RSKtsgvRt/?igshid=17r0npiayigi5

First part of my Dallas trip has come to a close. One evening demo and three full days of classes for the Dallas Area Woodturners at @woodworldtx. I had a blast and every student finished at least one of each technique we focused on. Good people, great facility and lots of shavings. Will have an easier couple of days before the next event, Trinity River Woodturners Retreat. Looking forward to that as well. #wood #woodturner #woodturning #lathe #lessons #class #demo #teach #bowl #bowlturner #bowlturning #morocco #moroccoblue #calabash #texture #texas #dallas #makersgonnamake https://www.instagram.com/p/B3nxLIWgR8l/?igshid=14rl7gywvsb73

Next color collection, Morocco White. Continuing in the style of Morocco Blue, I’m staring this with the white/blue Porcelain and the white/green Spring. Both bowls are Maple and about 7 3/4” diameter. @hampshiresheen Electric Blue and Electric Green colored waxes. #wood #woodart #art #artist #color #colorway #porcelain #spring #blue #morocco #moroccoblue #bowl #bowlmaker #bowlturner #bowlturning #lathe #woodturner #woodturning #stl #stlouis #stlmade #thewalnutlogstudio (at The Walnut Log Studio And Supply) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByRl48tgHoe/?igshid=1xyjjqh2kvfjr

When in doubt go back to basics. Made what I considered a klunker yesterday as far as colorway. Some of you liked the yellow but I really didn’t. So working on an updated Morocco Blue that will head to a private collection in Canada later this week. Changed my acrylic technique after several hours mulling over how I could modify the yellow colorway to make it match what I see in my head. This is part of my process...in order to figure something out I often need to figure out something else first. Really pleased with this one so far. #wood #woodturner #woodturning #lathe #backtobasics #thewalnutlogstudio #bowl #bowlturner #bowlturning #texture #morocco #blue #moroccoblue #art #artpiece #woodart #stl #stlouis #30bowls30days (at The Walnut Log Studio And Supply) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWhIKtATcT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lznilgczcp1t

So this happened today! I had just gotten notice of not being selected for an art program I had applied for and not 30 minutes later was tagged (thanks @2treeboyz!!) in this!! Huge thanks to @aawoodturners for selecting my work as the turning of the week. Truly an honor! #wood #woodturner #woodturning #lathe #aaw #aawwoodturners #bowl #design #art #artwork #artpiece #moroccoblue #moroccoblack #bowl #bowlturner #bowlturning #stl #stlouis https://www.instagram.com/p/BqYYGi_AzfD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=btk30k3dqe66

Time to start packing for SWAT!! Two pieces for the Instant Gallery, 2 sample pieces of the airbrush project I’m demoing, 3 prepped blanks for those demos and a piece for the World of Woodturners swap on Saturday. Some friends are already headed there today and I’ll fly out in the morning. If you’re going to the Southwest Area Woodturners Symposium in Waco TX, be sure to say Hi!! Looks to be an excellent weekend!! #wood #woodturning #woodturner #lathe #bowl #bowlmaker #bowlturner #bowlturning #plate #platter #airbrush #color #copper #sunset #desert #highdesert #blue #moroccoblue #instantgallery #symposium #swat2018 #demo #demonstrator #art #artwork #latheart #woodart #stl #stlouis #thewalnutlogstudio #wacotexas (at The Walnut Log Studio And Supply) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmybls5AW18/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tm3okxg7svml
