i was looking at the gallery and was struck by the thought (i was sitting down, so the thought was safe) that unusuall good visual wood overrides good form
i liked ByGeorge's sugar maple vase and the form is excellant but Gary Ljostad black pasha piece has excellant form also but the wood makes the piece stand out and be remembered
i was looking at T Mitchell pieces at a gallery in virginia and was struck by how plain his wood choice was but how unusual and good form he had
i am not sure where i want this to go, but as a inexperienced turner seems to me a great piece of wood may carry an inexperienced turner's learning projects
anybody got any thoughts??
