Piece a Week #21 - Tonbo Two

Another dragonfly!

This is before the final 5 hour tumble (rotating drum filled with water, soap and steel shot).

She still looks pretty good!

She has some texturing, fusing, one little granulation ball...there were four, but three came off after the ultra-sound bath.

Boo.

The granulation balls lasted through tripoli and rouge...but I guess the ultrasound was a bit too much. I decided to not go back in to fuse them on...I kinda like the one little ball.

Tondo Two

I have these new ideas of layering shapes so that the top shape looks like it is rising out of the layers below...like something archeological...a fossil type thing.

And now...to pack for the McCollum Studios Tahoe show!
