The one large arc of the the leaf you are currently under-cutting appears almost as a wave of water splitting up against the sun so to speak. As if the sun is cutting through the water or in this case the leaf. As I have watched every episode up until this one, and on each episode more and more details are brought to life, it us amazing how you envisioned this entire piece and left yourself “meat” of the wood to come back and fill with the details. Much of it I could not “see” from the start but your mastery of skill, the design, and the artistry to utilize all of the specialty tools you have collected over the years, like the left and right handed short bent tools from Henry Taylor or some of the other special tools from pfiel and audio etc. Yes you may have full sets of the various tools, but I think most was because you just wanted to fill in to justify having all those extra specially curved and back-curved gouges. Thank you soo much for expanding my viewpoints. Now I can relax a bit and only go for specific special tools instead of being worried about having every piece from each manufacturer. A master at work! I truly enjoy learning as I watch you proceed to dig these wonderful features out of a piece of wood! Than you!
