Carved Bud Vase
Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata)
I was a living tree and useful. My reality after being felled; a gate post, redundant, firewood pile, rescued and a turned vessel. After turning, two different diameter holes were drilled slightly apart; one above the other. Tapered slopes were then carved around each hole and from both ends. The slopes were smoothed, textured and stained. Finished with three coats of Danish oil.
