Images now popped up in the original posting. Not make sense.

Not the sort of bowl I associate with you George, no colour but still a lovely piece, more my personal taste as well. You'll be doing spindle work next and really surprising us all LOL.

I had to Modify the original post Pete because I had trouble uploading the Pics.
Thanks Pete
I have gone back to making stuff that I enjoy I was turning into a production turner only making what I could sell and no consideration for enjoyment if that makes sense.

Makes a lot of sense. Suspect all of us who turn to earn have been there.

Hello George I am sure with your skill and eye for detail, making things that you enjoy, will sell just as well.  It takes a bit for anyone in any profession, to be able to just stand back and view what are the more important things in life.

Love the oak bowl by the way :)

Kind regards

David

+1 for that George.

Bring to to the club tomorrow, I'd love a better look.
