Wooden Planet

[Roger Day]

 

Moonscape _ Oak _ 1m

One of a group of spheres of different forms.

Exhibited in Brighton Festival 2009

 

"Parallels of material and form, living Earth and moon, Planets and stars......

Our fragile existence on the edge of a far flung Galaxy, gravitates our mind to the wonder of the cosmos and the origins of life."

[josharb87]

now that is COOL! howd you get it so round?

[Roger Day]

It's shot from the best side but even I was quite pleased.

You guessed it....A lot of practice and a lot of sawing is the answer.

Give it a try.....Big funky wooden balls are great!

And I don't need equipment to get them into shows..."Light touch paper and Rollllllll"

 

Watch the kids don't roll them onto each other down the garden as they are very heavy, poseing a potential crush hazard!

 

Thanks for the compliment

Very nice Moon, very pleasing to look at' must try one and make it into a seat for my garden.
