Bob Ross Agate?

I was told this one looks like a Bob Ross Painting.  This was my first point using the indirect precussion.  Uncooked agate.

Thanks guys.  I had fun with that one.  Josh, don't heat the agate, it takes all the fun out of it.  I think this stuff is harder than the texas rhyolite, I mean concrete that I got from Cipriano.

Very nice. Great banding in that point.
