As one of the artists invited to collaborate with the late Bill Luce, I was given this vessel turned by Bill. There was a knot, partly epoxied in place, when I received it. This knot made the grain pattern that inspired me to create these little speedsters of life.
Collaboration is the sharing of and working on ideas together. I think Bill would have had something to say about my choice for his bowl.
I do see this as a melding of his turning skill and eye for shape and design, and my impression of that after the fact. Who knows what will become of a piece at the Inception of Conception.
