LOL Wizzy,

The first thing I thought when I saw this piece was 'bullseye'. Capnfrank nailed this one.

Love the target, the staining, everything about it really. Only exception is the base. I'd love to see it a bit smaller in diameter. However, you've done it like this and it is a lovely piece. I just feel like it would be that much better with a smaller base. 8-)

I hear you Rev, that was my first attempt at a hollow form. After that day with Avelino Samuel, I found a way to get a Jameison captured hollowing set up. I have a lot of stuff to work with so I'll be trying to make them thinner and more delecate at the base. I appreciate the constructive criticism, I always rely on your eye.
