About the Artwork
I got the idea of this form from a morning glory. I did not add any decorations to make the most of the zelkova wood grain.

Techniques Used
Wood turning
In wood turning (hikimono), a piece of wood is rotated on a lathe and shaped with various cutting tools. Wood turning is suited to the creation of round trays, containers, and bowls. Different blades and cutting angles can be used to produce a wide range of forms. Balanced, symmetrical forms are made by spinning the lathe at a constant speed.
