Arlene says, "I just completed learning, from the master himself, how to do sandblasting art on glass and I tell you I loved it, but my 73+year old hands had a hard time doing it. It was not to bad doing all the steps with the design and the resist and then "weeding" out the pieces I wanted to sandblast, but doing the actual sandblasting in the big machine with my hands inside gloves and looking through a glass covered box was hard to do and sometimes see. I had to take a lot of rests. I will put this in a stained glass piece. Here are two views of it.
