    Very nice piece, with some very nice grain. Great finish too! The only thing I can see that might look better, is for the shoulder to be a little more rounded off....looks a little sharp from here.

    Very Nice, great form...the only crit from me is the sides look dull
    & scratchy on my pc, it's looks to be from the glare of the lights, or
    maybe you soaked it to long in your DNA bath .

    I love this piece Keith. You really complimented the wood with the form. I've never seen the orangy/red spalting before...black of course and heard a bit about greenish tint. Is that something common to the Sycamore?

    I am not a picky person, knowing how much work and ability it takes to make a piece like this, but I was ready to critique this as requested. I like it as you have made it. That is my honest critique.

    nice form, keith.

    very elegant.

    the form and finish compliment the wood very well.

    great photos, too!
    best regards,
