The summer edition (#182) of the Antigonish Review, features an image of my box "Dilemma" on the cover. This publication is a very high quality production with interesting content, one I had never heard of until they approached me to feature my photograph.
The name 'Dilemma' intrigues people at times, but the explanation is quite simple. I had to name it and couldn't think of an appropriate one, so I found myself in a dilemma. 🙂
The box pictured is made of African blackwood (no surprises there as anyone who knows my work will attest) with the ball feet and interior of the box (not visible) made of tulipwood. The conical top and flat sides are finely textured with the ball finial and feet and the top and underside of the curved body having a smooth finish. The piece is approximately 6" tall by about 4" square.
It has been sold.
My available work is on my Small Box Store: https://stevenkennard.com/blog/shop
The photo of the publication (taken on my phone) does not do justice to the high quality printed copy.

Nice cover! (although the text could have matched those lovely ball feet more)
Very cool, +Steven Kennard!!!
Ellie that is always the problem when someone else has control of the print quality … Some wood turners are always in a dilemma – now that will fire the man up .
+Len Phillips I'm fired! 😎
+Len Phillips isn't that true? Possibly working with non pro setup as it's a small production. To their credit they paid for use of the photograph, most don't offer.
Thanks for the explanation on the name. Love the box
+Linda Jess thanks you you 🌞
