David Einhorn Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 As beautiful as I have come to expect from anything associated with your name, shop or students. Absolutely beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I see another balance at work as well; that between the smooth precise lines and form and the controlled roughness from the tools. The tongs are graceful and beautifully represent the male and female. The door handle invites the hand, not only to open the door but to caress and fully feel the history of it's creation written it's being.

bigfootnampa Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 They are very nice Hofi! I especially love the tong-sculpture! Are you sure that he didn't get that idea from my youtube videos(:-)? Just kidding guys!! It is a very nice concept and well executed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
double_edge2 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 the student, is a credit, and reflection of skills passed on by the skilled teacher, doesnt matter what idea from where, the point is, after being shown, to manipulate steel to the seen (or mental) image, or shape. pat you, and your student on the back.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
