This little vessel is a recent creation using walnut as the base and small limb sections set in a raspberry tinted resin. I'm not sure what wood the limbs are but would guess they are pruning from a citrus tree like orange, grapefruit or lemon. This piece in one of the e/P series. In earlier posts I explained this series I am doing in detail. The e/P designation spells out the entire concept. The e stands for the empty containers I build the vessel around or over. The P indicates the potential promise of the piece to become an artful object.
In Raspberry Pot I used a shallow plastic cup to build around. It is entirely open at the top and I am still debating if it needs a top, I could cast one in tinted resin to match the color in the piece and give visual strength to the Raspberry title. What do you think?
