“Southwest Style” segmented bowls and hollow forms were made popular by Ray Allen. The first “how-to” book we purchased to learn how to make segmented woodturnings was Ray Allen’s book. “Southwest style” segmented bowls often contain a central feature ring that uses southwestern motifs. Since Reid is from New Mexico, most of our first segmented turnings were “Southwest style”.
