Simply outstanding Tom! It was great seeing this in Chicago and nice seeing you complete it with such an excellent form! I love the 3-D effect you got out of the pattern; nice job on the color and contrast of the pattern! Home run Maestro!!

Tom, even though I don't do segmented work or have any interest in doing segmenting (don't have the patience ;) ) I find your work to be inspirational ! Your patterns and colors are exceptional and different than most of the segmented work I have seen. And, your forms are always well done - not so with some others that let their glue-ups define the form. Love the base pattern on the interior view.

OT - How do you get your piece to look like it is floating in your photo?

Thanks, I made the base with a laser.

I first remove the background using Microsoft Paint, then I bring the clean picture into the blue background using Microsoft Paint.
