Here are some pictures of a commission I delivered last week. When I was first asked to do a bowl with a greenhouse and very specific plants at first I thought it was too difficult. But then I thought I should give it a try, partly because I know how much pleasure it gives to people to have something made specifically for them. I had to be quite focused because if I spend too much time working on these there is no profit in making them. I hope I've got the balance right.
