Art Knife Invitational

[Brian Hochstrat]

Hi all. Here is one of the pieces I did for the AKI, it is a Dwight Towell made knife. Dwight typically does sole authorship knives for that show, but we both live in Midvale Id. and I was attending AKI for another a larger piece I did, so we thought it would be fun to collaborate on a little something. Anyway this was the result, deep carving with rose gold background and borders.

Absolutely first class!
I was fortunate to be asked to ship it for the winning bidder and had it with me for a few hours and looked it over VERY closely.
Congratulations Brian!

A real pleasure to behold. I especially like your sculpting work! It was also refreshing to see some red gold border inlay for a change.
