I am so impressed by his work! all one piece with the two tones in it. He sure is an artist! Seeing him use that big saw had me worried there but he knows what he is doing! Fran

Wow! This piece left me speech-less! It's amazing to be able to "carv" a rough piece in your mind in such details! The color change is the ultimate proof of the artistry of this man. I keep scrolling up and down and am amazed on how accurate he oriented his work such as the color change is in the right place. The organic details are also amazing. He is a great artist and you are lucky to be able to learn from him.
Thanks for sharing!
Adrian
PS. His experience in using this material is also impressing: I would had avoided that crack visible in the first pics at the bottom of the pendant, but in the final work it has been elliminated. He might had known somehow it's not very deep.

Something like that takes so much skill both designwise and craftmanshipwise. Thanks for posting that.

I have to say this is fabulous, I'm in awe too!
I'd be curious to see that little carved "crevasse" on the bottom of the pendant -(on the bottom left of the final pic) - Who'd they do that?
