    Default Mark Lindquist's Shed

    I was in my second favorite den of iniquity, Asheville Hardware, and found a nice book about Mark Lindquist.

    Google Image Result for http://www.roberthobbs.net/images/book_covers/Mark_Lindquist.jpg

    I did some research and found the below showing his studios.

    The Blakely Burl Tree Project Story-Arriving At Lindquist Studios

    How many would KILL for just one of them?

    The book also noted that in the 1970s he rough turned a maple bowl and buried it for a year to induce spalting. I have many logs sitting on the ground, cut side to dirt for that purpose. Roughing first, then spalting is an idea.

    More: Mark Lindquist (sculptor) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    I like Mark's earlier turned things more than the later sculpted pieces.

    So much timber, so little time.

    Thumbs up

    Yes Paul, I think we all spire to produce his sort of artistry. He certainly changed perceptions when it cam to woodturning.

    Thanks for the post and the links.
