Newbie, huh? Maybe to IAP, but your work looks great to me. I like the rope design there on the end the best.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome. That is some beautiful stuff you have there. Where do you pick up your crushed torquiose? I'm into rock stuff right now. I really like the look.

Welcome from San Francisco. I like your pens. I also do inlay with stone, ground up metals, embossing powders, ground up shell, coffee grounds, sawdust from contrasting exotic woods.
