white manzanita


while in Mt. Shasta i kept thinking i wanted to try carving a spoon out of the manzanita that is growing all over the place. it is hard to find a dry piece that has not split, so i had to go with a green section of branch. this little spoon has a graceful twist that evokes some of the spirit of the plant it came from. i like the two little dots that showed up in the bowl. this one i finished while in Reno.
