    Small Holly

    Had to knock this out quick today for my Stepdaughter. My wife is leaving in the morning for Detroit to visit her. My wife said "ain't you gonna make a bowl for her"? Wish I had more time as this was quick and dirty. I hate it when I'm rushed.

    Good job Brian. I'm glad she let it sit still long enough to take a picture.

    Thanks Guys for all the comments. It helps boost my ability. Amber loved the bowl and now wants some pens. She's a massage therapist(legit kind so no jokes) in Detroit and gets some stars as clients. Keith Urbine(country music) and just this past week Jack Black, these are 2 that I remember. Maybe a star will want one of my pens when they see them .
    I've got a couple of items I will post later today. One is a punky spalted bowl that flew apart while buffing. I managed to save it enough that the wife decided to keep it anyway. The other is a Holly scab that I decided to play with. If the finish comes out it will be neat to say the least. Thanks Again!
