pretty work
« on: January 07, 2011, 09:10:31 am »
took a break from the fluting project yesterday and finished off these two pieces . brown one is heated jasper (i think picture jasper) and the other i s some kind of european flint. the pics dont do justice to either piece. the jasper is gorgeous.

Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!
