Thank you so much for the post and kind words. I think the way the pendant is paired with that necklace by Sandra Rodrigues (that's a beauty) we almost have one of Ponsawan's "wild things" necklaces. Almost. The technique is the same but Instead of shaving off the clay to reveal the pattern beneath, I bake the piece first and sand off the majority with coarse sandpaper, switching to fine, etc. once I get past the majority of raised pattern. It reduces the distortion from dragging the blade and I have more control over how much I reveal. Since the pendant is domed, it's difficult to remove the excess with a blade and not take off too much. (Wow I hope this makes sense when you read it)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('51692','Scott'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('51692','Scott','What a surprise!
