A bounty of bowls

In preparation for Fiona and my Paths to Peace and Stillness exhibition in August-September some things are being created in multiples.

Over the last little while this has included making bowls of various sizes for various purposes.

Three leaf foldformed bowls for incense burners.

And larger bowls that will hold Fiona's porcelain peace and stillness scrolls.
