My little tribute to the Olympics, well as a bowlturner how could I not?
And I also wanted to share daughter Jojo’s latest spoon done entirely on her own, I am really very proud of her.

Jojo that is a lovely spoon, i really like the asymmetry, lovely form. Robin I hope you will be safe from the olympic infringement police
Nice spoon and bowls
Beautiful spoon. Graceful lines and subtle facets on the back. Pride well deserved. Robin, is the paint from dry pigments? I have been experimenting with some artist's oils (as in Jogge's book), so I am curious what you've used for the colors.
By the way, Unknown is above is Dave Fisher, I just haven't figured out how to change it from "unknown".
Hi Dave, The paints are natural pigments I bought in Sweden years ago. Normally I make an egg and oil emulsion like this http://greenwood-carving.blogspot.co.uk/2008/12/how-to-make-home-made-paint.htmlbut these rims are done with a straight oil paint because I have some amazing 5 year old raw linseed that goes off really quickly.
