Longing for spring
Nov 21, 2018
Four years ago I fell in love with casting worthless pieces of wood with resin. From small pen blanks, over time each casting became bigger and bigger. I love burls with hundreds of imperfections, bark inclusions as each of these voids can be filled with resin and metallic powders. No two burls are alike, each finished product is unique. This particular vase incorporates PearlEx spring green mica powder with Aztec gold metalic powder.
Small additional cracks were filled in with copper powder.

The resin mixes itself due to its viscosity into myriads of unpredictable and interesting "waves". Notice the small cracks filled in with copper powder. Copper matches well with the color of cherry.

I love the shape imitating classical Roman and Greek vessels, maintaining the "Golden Ratio" of 1.618 between the height and diameter of the vessel.
