I received my August/September 2012 copy of the magazine"Garden & Gun" yesterday and found that it contained an article titled: "TOP GUN How Lisa Tomlin turned a childhood obsession with drawing animals into a career as one of the country's finest gun engravers".
I suspect that unless your a Southerner you are not familiar with the superb magazine "Garden & Gun", but a quick Google will give you some idea of its focus and writers.
This article gives a sketch of how Lisa met Ken Hurst and worked for him learning the trade and applying here great artistic skills to develop her style. A view of Lisa's website will illustrate he skills that she has. To my mind here skill and talent is equal to the best of the Italian engravers, and without a doubt here ability to illustrate animals on steel places her among the best of the best.
Best Regards;
Steve Howell, also a Southerner, but only a craftsman engraver, not an artist engraver.
