I thought, in an effort to get all of these in one place I'd consolidate my pendant/jewelry photos from the past. Here they are!

I love my hair ornament. That look so good on my shelf, and a really big oceanic art specialist was amazed to know it's current. |

Thanks for doing this - I think there are a few galleries around here that need to be rehosted/reposted for the benefit of newer members such as myself. Nothing is more frustrating than reading a thread full of "Wow!" where the pictures are all gone. |

Alas...Just found a workshop between Danielsville and Athens! Bigger than the legendary Volcano! Building a full downdraft setup for my bone carvings...just bought a powerful little snail motor from Canada. Time to get to work (now that I have a place I can call work!). |

Thanks, Dav, but Lord, no! I think I'd have to have a few more accomplishments before I ever thought about a book..I think Sam Maloof had a right to write a book about himself, but not me! Leroy Schmaltz, Barney West, Milan Guanko, Benzart, Ed Crissman....now that would make a good book! Eli Hedley-that book's been done, and that's a great book :) |

Fantastic work, Basement K! These two in particular stand out for me. Very unusual. What's their story? |

Thanks, Dav...The top piece is a type of Maori gaurdian spirit called a Marakihau. The second piece is the Solomon Islands god of the ocean, Ngorieru. The way the original petroglyphs of that piece are drawn I had to interpret the flow of it a great deal. That piece is being cast as a pendant for South Sea Arts. Aloha! BK |

If so that stuff works well adding some beeswax. looks like you are doing that to. last questions, What burs are you using especially on that fine detail? |
