On the 9th and 10th we had our annual show in Turlock, CA - turlockgemshow.com. The glyptic artist Jack Hoque, who I wrote about in the December issue of Rock and Gem Magazine, was a demonstrator of his art of carving from the back. I showed him a small slab of obsidian that had a mountain in it. I asked if he could carve an old man of the mountain on it. This is the result of his very creative and imaginative mind. When my wife Pat saw it she said that will be how I will look in my old age. Hmmmm. Bob  |
