Chuck, Very well done and what an intresting way to have inexpensive materials to work with I LOVE IT
I started training myself in doing this work by using ivory colored electrical wall switch plates to learn how different types of tools would work. I also experiment using hashing, stipple, and cutting as well as different mediums for coloring such as ink, paint, charcoal, shoe polish. I've also used some faux bone. I've been using needles of different sizes and exacto blades. I'd love to know where some of you get your tools from. I'm attaching some of the pieces I have done. Remember, I'm new and just starting out.
Beautiful work here. I recently started learning this fascinating art form and will be asking lots of questions so please bear with me.
