    I always cringe when an artist, or a patron. says they are combining red and green in a project. I have visions of muddy brown, or bad Christmas ornaments. I should have known to trust your skills with your chosen media. You created another exquisite piece, with or without being lighted. You've done yourself proud, yet again. Thank you for consistently turning out great pieces for our edification and enjoyment.

      Jim, this piece turned out well, Outstanding! When I saw the clumps of resin drop in and heard you sigh, I was worried. However, I believe the concentration/separation worked really well.. while still having some great mixture in other places. Was it the black pearl that made the green color pop so much under the black light? Whatever causes it... it's very cool!
      I'm sure this gift will be well received! KUDOS to the sweet husband that reached out to you for his wife's surprise gift too.
      In regards to your Sprague-Spooky endeavors next week it might be cool to add a few glow in the dark colors to the black in some way. Wishing you and your wife a great weekend.

      Мне понравилось цветовое решение. Это так мило и естественно, в духе уютных предметов обихода времен нашего СССР.
      У нас очень любили такие изделия.
      И еще мне очень нравится идея первоначальной заливки смолы, чтобы получить полую заготовку. Это экономит материал и другие ресурсы.
      И еще, позволю себе предложить одну идею. Во всяком случае ее можно проверить.
      Когда остается так много стружки из цветной смолы, то может быть ее стоит использовать повторно? Заливать прозрачной смолой и иметь великолепный интересный наполнитель для будущих шедевров?

    With a little imagination, I think I can see a dragon shape in the red resin! When it comes to demolding, I imagine the music from Star Wars swelling in the background, especially when the bucket goes to the floor! "Oh things are getting serious! Jim's putting it on the floor!!"

    This is brilliant, Jim! A really abstract impression of the Welsh flag! Being in Liverpool, I can be in Wales within 45 minutes, so I know all about Welsh folk. They are very passionate about their cultural identity, so I was pleased to see you get the colours right and your explanation of why you weren't using an ACTUAL dragon should keep them happy! They will "Keep a Welcome in the Hillsides and the Vales" for you!!
    I like the idea of a merch line, and I'll look forward to seeing what all of us can come up with for t-shirts, hats etc!

    this bowl/vase is beautiful! if you squint a little at the large red solid rea, you can almost make out a dragon...head toward the right,
    body wraps around toward the left... the opposite side reminds me of tulips in the spring... that was the first thing that came to mind
    when i saw it - same with the dragon! i wasn't sure i would like the color combo... too christmasy (i'm not ready for christmas yet)....
    this is just fabulous!!! thank you for the beauty!

    This piece turned out wonderfully. Maybe it's me, but I see hints of the Welsh dragons in the resin. I love the fact that you're not afraid to use bold colours together. Admittedly, I'm partial to blues, purples, and greens, but the colours are so vibrant that it seems to bring a spark of life to the wood in the pieces you do. Thank you for sharing your craft with us.
