But that photo of the web really blew my mind! I wonder if we won't be seeing its influence in some future works? Unless I just haven't caught up yet to your posting about it!

Thanks all for the vote of confidence in the leaf (hmm!! petal?) bowls. L- the polished bowls pick up the sunlight well. F- it has struck me that this form of fold forming is original - thanks. MJ - you are right learning the fold forming techniques took me from trial and error to a more predictable technical level and the confidence to experiment. It is funny about leaves versus petal. When I saw your stamped petals I saw leaves initially but then I saw the softer curves and I saw petals. R- what can I say to a lover of rust and patina other than I totally agree. VA - the 8 leaves do emerge softer as they are not as cramped in the cutting and beating process. SZQ - you have more confidence in the sale of these bowls than I have in the this current market but we will see. Three of the leaf bowls are off to Goondiwindi on Wednesday to get an outing at a regional art show. All- go well and be happy.
