I've been carving avocado seeds lately. Here are a pear and a turtle shell I made.

I like the flow state I get into when I’m focusing on small detailed things.

Carving a pear from an avocado seed feels disrespectful for some reason.

  I have considered doing an avocado shaped one. Is that better or worse?

    We need to go a level deeper: a carving of you carving a pear from avocado seed on another avocado seed

    Lol I have no explanation for why I feel like it’s disrespectful. It’s just existentially funny to carve a pear into a seed of a different fruit.

  You have to let them dry out for a long time before you carve them. Otherwise they are too soft and tend to crack/split as they dry.

I read ‘craving’ avocado seeds. Glad to see my concerns are bare rooted.
