By far... some of the best cameo engraving done by drill I have seen. I cam across Terri's work through my good friend Zoltan a few months ago, I wrote Terri and asked if we could feature her on our blog and she said yes! Here are some links so you can read some more about this talented woman, and some of the photos she has shared with me.
