Tree Tea

l made this teapot out of Pear then carved the bark, l think it would have been quicker to find a log with the handle and a spout in the right places...

Many firsts here, his first carving, his first attempt at painting, but not his first teapot. :-)

Comments and critiques more than welcome.
Now that is cool. I do have some concern about putting this particular kettle on the fire though
 
Saw this elesewhere Mike but after everybody elese noted there comment there was nowhere left to add mine :: ))
Seeing a piece presented with mother nature virtually untouched is fabulous & requires a special creative eye to match the skill of the artist
A true special piece Mike I love the set in lid as it does not break the rim flow to the base.
:cool2: ;)
