Burls 'n Bowls

Transformation from Burl to Bowl


Brian was given artistic freedom to see if there was a bowl within this large maple burl. The burl was delivered and sat in the workshop for nine months before Brian got up the courage to put it on the lathe. The burl had bark formations that snaked around it and he wasn't sure if it would break apart as it turned.
