Love at first sight for this kimono!!! It’s a mokume shibori (tie and dye mimicing wood grain) with matching edaume (plum blossoms branches). The dark studio shots don’t do that piece justice imo, it must be so pretty under natural light!
The obi OP chose has hanamaru (flowers in circle, you can especially spot the large peony)

I completed my mallet from the other day, got it glued up a couple days back and then turned the handle this afternoon. It ended up being a bit bigger than it really has any reason to be. I'll likely end up making a smaller version sometime in the future
It's a hard maple head with an oak handle.
Decided to put a single coat of shellac on, it really makes the grain stand out.
These awesome looking wooden doors, found in Goldfield Ghost Town (Arizona), are pure art! I asked one of my friends (who travels out of state often) to send me pics of anything he seen on the road, that he thought would work well with my chosen art themes. So, this piece is from a reference photo he sent to me. I started out by layering and blending colors, and then would go back over to refine the grain lines in the wood.
