Freehand "Juan Gris"

[maxmil]

This time the pipe design as adapted to the grain, not grain design. The purpose of doing so was not to sever the vein in any of the sides of the pipe, and get the "bird's eye", restricted to the top.
As a pipe out somewhat "cubist" called it "Juan Gris" in homage to one of the Spanish painters creator of Cubism.

En esta ocasión el diseño de la pipa lo adapté a la veta, y no la veta al diseño. El objeto de hacerlo así fue el no seccionar la veta en ninguna de las caras de la pipa, y conseguir el “ojo de perdiz”, exclusivamente en la parte superior.
Como salió una pipa un tanto “cubista”, la denominé “Juan Gris” en homenaje a uno de los pintores españoles creador del cubismo.

Great job with the grain - a truly "sensitive" pipe.

First off...the grain is amazing and you did a great job of displaying it. Secondly...I'm not sure I would care for that stem material anywhere else, but on this pipe I think it is just perfect. Well done.

Hola Felix,
as your name suggests you have a 'lucky' hand and truly it is a pipe through the prism of cubism!
The rich straight grain and massive appearance dominates and than it focuses along the stem i imagine to a thin line of smoke...

Best,
Abi

I saw them originally, but I can't anymore.

No probs. I see them now. And how wonderful they are!!!

I appreciate your comments, but rarely is a pipe, and I think that appeals to many people.

Agradezco vuestros comentarios; sin embargo es una pipa rara, y no creo que le guste a mucha gente.
