agsolder Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Pascalou-- could you please tell us what years of study, training, apprenticeship, it has taken you to develop this masterful level of skill? Or are you self-taught? Do you work in a commercial shop? An art studio? Self-employed? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nett Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Really cool. Silly me, I did not connect the elliptical embossing to the tool on my first examine. The more I study your amphora, the more I appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bentiron1946 Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 That is beautiful work. Did you make the tools yourself? I like the windows of your shop. Not everyday one sees leaded glass windows in a shop. Thanks for the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nett Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I think those leaded glass windows are actually some nice wrought ironwork. I understand the French take form and function very seriously. I believe that is why my neighbor, Robert Crumb, moved to southern France. He traded six of his sketchbooks for a townhouse in Sauve. Those French are pretty savvy, too. Shops in California have failed miserably in that regard because they either have magnetic alarm strips or bars that look like they were designed for San Quentin or Folsom State Prison.

Bentiron1946 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Nett, Your right, they are burglar bars. I guess even over there they have thieves. Still better then looking at straight lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
