Looking for branch burls.

[Evan Sussman]

The below photo tells the story of my father in love/law's sculpture.

He requested that I put out a request for similar burls to the arborist community. This means any burl you find, but specifically small burls on branches. He is willing to pay reasonably for them.

Please reach out to me for contact information, or look up Leo Osbourne, Milkwood Studios.

You all might enjoy a browse of his website anyway as most of his work starts with wood.

Thank you!

What is the optimal size ? Diameter?

Can he use pine? I have one that has many. Would like to help out fellow carver.

@Oroboros, that piece in the picture is about 6x9 on a 3" limb. Around there is specifically what he's looking for right now, but he works with all sizes.

@Brocky, I will ask him. I would think so.
