Happy New Year my friends,
Here is the latest horn project that was one of those fun things to do. I wrote the poem and built the horn, scraped not sanded. A cherry base plug and a walnut stopper, dyed with natural dyes. I use a small knife to incise the lines and go back and accent some of the lines with a burin, I use a flat skewed chisel to some of the accents on the leaves, the rope borders were done with a burin.
Enjoy,
Mark
