Thank God it's still May!
Ok, I seem to complain that time slips away all too quickly and that shed time doesn't factor into family life too easily....but enough if that .....
May challenge. I am involved in a few swaps currently so the first pen is headed over to USA.... Sssshhhh..... Don't tell anyone I posted a photo here before I actually posted the pen in the mail. The blank was made by Steve Daniels (5 flag creations) who makes all sorts of resin and glow combinations. His lastest I have seen was a full resin banksia pod :o
The second pen is one of my casts with mallee burl from a miller in South Australia (Whyalla timber slabs - thanks Byron). Ripper little block with lots of old bug tunnels and such so plenty of resin holes. This one is to be donated to silent auction. A school teaching friend is raising money to take his class on the Kokoda track. I hope it fetches a little to help their journey. I think I'll do one more for them out of straight timber in case there are a few nature people at the auction (and to help empty all their pockets)
Finally a shot of a blank I'm making. It's in the pressure pot tonight, so hopefully I get a useful blank outta it.... Not my idea but an idea I quite like.....
Still need to get one more done before Saturday!!
Cheers all
