Sea Urchins with Birdhouse and Hollow Form by Brian Maguire
Curly Maple, Spalted Maple, Wood Dyes, Paduk, Clear Finishes, Sea Urchin Shells, Painted Wire Stand
12" High x 10" Wide x 10" Deep
Process/Concept:
Creation of ornaments utilizing lathe-based end grain orientation spindle turning to create hollow main elements, finials, mortise and tenon fitment, often incorporating some combination of coloration and surface embellishment. Some ornament styles incorporate found objects.
From the Artist:
When I began making ornaments I primarily used clear finishes, thus I selected wood species for each component with complimentary grain patterns and tones. I harvest and mill a significant portion of my own wood turning blanks and many of my ornament blanks are milled from remnants of larger pieces. Over time the process has evolved into using transparent dyes over spalted wood components, texturing, pyrography and gilding cream or acrylic paints for accents. The introduction of found items such as sea urchin shells into my ornament work coupled with dyed curly maple finials provides unique color contrasts.
