I finally got to work on the two thrones for St Mary’s Primary School in Beverley, East Yorkshire, which were to be situated in their impressive wildlife area. I’ve previously posted pictures of Pete Bowser sawing one of the trunks to shape for me, but Pete has recently sent me and the school some pictures of the tree being felled ~ and it was great for the pupils to have a record of the entire process.<\/p>\n

I started with the owl-themed throne, which showed one of our feathered friends reading a book and surrounded by some text. A pretty straightforward task, and although the turkey oak was a bit moist and stringy it was still nice to work with.<\/p>\n

After the lettering the challenge was to find somewhere to squeeze in a caterpillar, which had been the idea of one of the pupils. I struck on the idea of utilizing one of the arm rests, which I began shaping with an arbortech.<\/p>\n

The other throne, again part-designed by the St. Mary’s pupils, featured a dove, a rainbow and flowers ~ with some more text above and below.<\/p>\n

Thanks again to Pete Bowser who expertly delivered and positioned the thrones!<\/p>\n
