For your first work in steel you have done very well. You have a distinctive style for one so new to the engraving world. tell us a bit about your background, and yourself if you don't mind. Welcome to the Café. Glade you have joined us. Fred

Welcome to the forum! I too must express my amazement at your first work in steel. It is quite well executed, as well as having a pleasing layout and design. Well done.

Hi,
well i'm a jeweler(no tattooartist:) mostly i do reperations and from time to time i design something.
In march i did a course in antwerp (stonesetting and basic engraving at alexandre sidirov)
Before i already did some stonesetting but i did everything by hand.
This course and these new tools(microscope and gravermach) really changed my life.
To be honnest engraving and drawing became a bit of an obsession the last few months:)
When i see all your work i realise there is still a long way to go but i have fun and that's what mathers to me...

I like seeing work from someone who has not been influenced by traditional engravers. It's not confined to what we think of as classic or correct. I look forward to seeing more of your engraving. Very well executed for an early piece.

an unusual design in my mind, but quite pleasing to the eye. as mentioned-- a new style, maybe for others to learn from. thanks for showing.
