"Four"

"Four"
-loblolly pine from Bastrop, TX

We helped out a local potter friend Max, whose property was devastated in the
Bastrop fire.  We helped out just a bit-cleaning up, helping him recycle some metal
from his burned up ceramics studio, piddling around through the ashes and sand. 
I have to admit, it's hard to wrap your brain
around such intense changes to the landscape and a family's life

This is the loblolly pine that I used for
the sculpture "Four"

I was able to chainsaw mill some of the pine into three and four inch slabs-for future sculpture and furniture.  Thanks Max
