In this post, we are featuring Gilly from Royal Blast in Dallas and his latest etchings of four different types. You may have remembered him in the past. I really like his work because he does such a wide variety of etchings and techniques. We have talked about some of these types which he did
A fellow subscriber, Steve Davis, sent over this recent multi-stage sandcarving of a couple of flowers.

Sheila Knight shared this fun holiday etching with me earlier this year after we posted Tracy’s reverse etched Christmas project here. Sheila was nice enough to feature it here. I wanted to wait until the holiday season started so I am sharing it today to give you some festive ideas. She basically reverse etched some
We featured Gilly Saucedo a couple weeks ago here. He was nice enough to share some of his other work in this post of engraved designs done on concrete and stepping stones, and these are really cool.
