The subject line says it all. This is not turning, but he does turn also. These pieces are large, rectangular (more or less) and look as if water has bubbled up from the center and washed furrows in the pieces. Dramatic.
Anyone know, let me know. Thanks, James Johnson
Is ther any place we can view his work?
Ralph, if I had a website, I would have the information I need. Sorry, if someone knows about him, and lets us know, we can all view it. Hopefully. James
I did a google search of the words "aussie woodturner erosion" and it came back with the name of Neil Scobie, I couldnt find a website for him. But I found an example of his work here
DAGS Neil Scobie and you turn up quite a bit more. Including the fact that he is scheduled to demo an Erosion Bowl at AAW this year.
Both Neil Scobie and his wife Liz demonstrated at the Utah Woodturning Symposium in 2005. I don't believe that they have a web site. He turns and she paints or decorates his turned pieces to make some pretty nice art.

That is the guy. I spent a couple of hours on Google trying various combinations of "Aussie" Woodturner and "Erosion" without ever finding him, so I appreciate the leads.
I have some live oak burl slabs that I want to do similar work in, so I really was looking to steal his ideas. Is that fair?
Thanks again to the group. You guys came thru once again!!
Regards, James Johnson
You can find references and images of Neil's work in the September and December Newsletters:
Fred and all; After receiving the help from the group, I searched and found this site:
