Thread: Some new pieces!

I like the form, and especially the combination of materials. Good work

Very spectacular. Great combination of diferent items. Like the chinese/japanese writting.

Yep
very pleasing to the eye

Zen and the art of woodworking.

I like them especially the brushwork/calligraphy, where do you get your characters from, the net of someone you know?

An excellent work, wood and oriental philosophy are a good marriage, me too when I design furniture, Feng-Shui applied, we are almost neighbors, a greeting from Tenerife.

Thanks for the comments guys, appreciated

I didn't know written languages could be copyrighted

Very nice work Are the characters pyrographed or painted on???

Forgot to ask . Is the polymer clay the Miliputt variety??? I've been unsuccessfully trying to find a supplier here in Oz while it looks like every man and his dog sells it in the UK

Nicely done. Great work.

Great pieces there Gasman!! Love the subtle colours and pleasing forms!

Hi all
Thanks again for the kind comments
TTiT - The symbols were made from images off the web and made into a stencil and then airbrushed on. When you look into these things you have no idea how much is actually copyright. Take a simple thing like a letter`A` you would think that is freely available but you find a slightly strange/different font of it and voila ruddy copyright shows its face so to avoid any hassle I use stuff that says its free to be used. The poly clay I used is called `Fimo` and the vase finial was Fimo classic and for the bowl handle I used Fimo effects. I`m still sussing out what you can/can`t do with this stuff yet and what the different makes can do!
Cheers
