"Hi there. On behalf of Expert Village.com, my name is Candace Copeland. Thanks for joining me in this segment of Rawhide Art. I am going to show you a little bit - what another way that you can do is to illuminate your rawhide. Because rawhide has a wonderful thin quality to it. And this particular one is of an angel and she's kneeling and so just by putting one of these little magic candle holders behind is a safe way as opposed to - sometimes the candles - you have to be careful what you're using with certain ones with candles. But it does give that wonderful luminosity. We talked about the horse from before so you can see what happens. This one can take the candle and the flickering of it because it's safe enough. I suppose I could put a candle behind this one too, but to really get in there, I can set this light all the way inside. Somebody suggested hanging these with little lights inside because they could be like a little - they do really, really show the veins and show everything that is going on with that rawhide when you put them inside. This one happens to be antelope. Let's see what it looks like. Yeah. Very lovely. Great idea. And I thought it could only be with angels. That's what art is all about. Getting excited, finding something new because you've done something long enough that it's time to perk it up a bit. "
