This piece features a green tumbles opal against a backround that remids me of an eclipse, bands of creme and copper based blue, and a cap of a very vivid yellow. The entire piece has been carved with various geometric patterns and shapes.

These sandcarved pieces are made utilizing an extremely time consuming multi-step process. I first create the piece on the torch and anneal it in a digitally controlled kiln. I then clean the piece with acetone, lay out a series of images on a layout program, cut those images on a vinyl plotter, apply them to the the piece, sandblast the piece, soak them in acetone to remove the decals, clean them, and oil them.
