[QUOTE="CrosbyPipes, post: 4934, member: 112"] Neill those are great articles as always. I would add, another factor that will serve to shape the American aesthetic is the geographic distance between the American carvers. We are, for the most part, working separately and then meeting or discussing our work together after the fact. There is little outside influence during the act of creation. That is different than the European atmosphere where many of the carvers start off working together in the same studio and not separating until years later. While it may be too early to see what influence the isolation factor has on the look of American pipes, I think it can not help but have an effect. PS> It has been a few days since I read your blog on this. If you addressed this already and I have missed it I apologize. I am going on my first cup of coffee today :D [/QUOTE]
