New Moon in the studio progress update

Hello all. For those who know me well know that I love to share and I mostly do that on Facebook these days. However, since moving the website to Squarespace and familiarizing myself with their work flows I find it much easier to add content and to pass it along to many outlets on the web. I'm currently working on a piece that is similar to the "Keeper of the Tide" but on a smaller scale. I'm particularly excited with this work because I'm integrating the aluminum hardware to be less intrusive and be part of the art rather than a distraction. This first set of photos shows how the bevel in the moon rim is roughed out before planing. I'll be posting more updates in the week. Until then thanks for dropping in.
