The talent is just oozing out of the entire JP household. Your wifey did a great job on the painting! Oh yeah, and your earrings and necklace are pretty cool too.

Way to Go Mrs JP. Most Excellent piece there. Question is is it Johnny's Art magic rubbing off on you or is YOUR Artistic magic rubbing off on him?? We'll let the 2 of you fight it out and meanwhile We'll keep enjoying all the art you guys shoot out to us.

Jp
I love the picture expecially the way your good lady has dealt with the grass skirt, she's got some real movement going on there.
Regards
Flynny

Yo Johnny,
Very nice painting by the Mrs. Gman likee! Maybe it's time that Mrs. P took a name of her own and started posting on the boards? Maybe painting YOUR carvings isn't enough for her, eh? Careful now, she might grab your toolz and strike out on her own. I imagine it's time to show here how to sharpen chain.....or does she already know?
Beautiful paintng "J",
-G

Thanks guys for the nice comments!
Mr. Benzart -Johnny has a great way of encouraging and supporting my newly found art habit. Together you could say we are "synergistic" .
Mr. Gman - Just starting to dabble in paints. 3D still boggles my mind. What you guys do surpasses me!!
Mr. Congatiki - Not from Canada but close! It was just a design why? What were you looking for, eh ?
Mrs. Johnny P

Hi,
It is snowing today and freezing! This is spring and it is supposed to be a whole lot warmer but I've been putting off carving for way too long. It's just cold up here and way too unpleasant to be outside. (Don't tell Gman- I told him I wasn't posting because he wasn't.)
Here is the rough draft of a concept of a series of glassware I am thinking of starting. Sanding and detail carving yet to come. The three hooks will be lashed together like composite hooks are. Do you think this is a sell-able idea?
Thanks

Nice design...I like it. What will the hooks be made out of? They would look nice in a colored frosted glass, and then the clear glass for the cup portion. I would definitely buy some.

Wow JohnnyP, that looks terrific! Was it hard to get all the hooks to look the same?

That's super cool JP. I think it would have to have its very own drink recipe.

VampressRN- I am going to make several of these. All will be out of wood but with different style hooks. I may make a couple with bone or BC jade hook points lashed on. Frosted glass would be neat, but I have a lot to learn about glass.
Finkdaddy, I cut the first hook out, then traced it to cut the others, but they are not all the same, each has it's own personality (and mistakes).
Gman- Boars teeth would be great, are you going to part with some? I'll send you a glass.
Surf Tiki- It's own recipe, Hmmm. I'll think I'll have to spend next weekend experimenting in the kitchen- sounds like fun.
Thanks Travelingjones and Benella I appreciate the feedback and encouragement.
Here is a quick update, still a bit more sanding and a little more fine tuning, then comes the stain and lashing together.
I have to figure out how to mass produce these, or at least make small batches easier to make.
Thanks for looking
JP
