Time to waste bowl

I found a piece of wood that might have been ornamental pear, that I had rough turned this spring.  It has warped so severely I honestly didn’t think it could be even be turned.  Since I had some time to kill, I decided to spin it up and see what I could do with it.

Below is the final result.  The outside of the bowl had a lot of really ugly blotches in the wood, so I decided paint was the best way to compensate.  This is small, maybe 4 1/2″ across.

From the top, this looks like a normal, brown and round bowl.
From the side, the paint helps hid the imperfections in the wood.
