Constellation Table 2

Second in my series of 'Constellation' tables - constructed of poplar, birch and cherry - 

and measures 11" x 20" x 30"h.

Grain patterns are very important in this piece. The position of the darker grain on the top is related to the knot in the birch on the apron. The cherry legs have a large tonal difference in their grain and I wanted the effect to be almost one of clouds of a lighter color. 

Grain pattern on the apron also wraps all 4 sides.

The darker pattern on the top and the eye remind me of nebulas and quasars and suit the name of the piece well.
