I have finished this special project.
It is an etching realized in a knife Scagel.
The design inspired by the work of Goya ()
Realized to 7 levels, it has been a complex and difficult work, but I am satisfied of the result.

Absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing. I am so pleased that you are keeping a skill alive. I hope you have an apprentice so that the skill can be passed on.

Definitely high art! Stunning.

Very nice detail and depth rendering from the several layers of etch. I like this very much. Well done!

Also, there is some very nice work on the sheath. Do you make those, too?
