olive from Spreadwing


when i was visiting a wonderful farm in the Capay Valley of California called Spreadwing, they suggested to me that i might harvest some spoon wood from a recently fallen and still green branch next to their barn. this little one was from a section of branch that was already dry and stable, which i often prefer to working with wet wood, because it is more stable and predictable. i started working on this spoon there at Spreadwing, worked on it while hitch-biking to Reno from Mt. Shasta, and finished it my first day in Reno when we went to Pyramid Lake.
