"In Memory of Our Savior"
The front of the egg is an etching of Christ on the Cross, with ivy leaves around the cross.  The artist used the natural coloring of the egg to enhance the contours and create contrast.  The back features a door cut out and lined with a rich burgundy satin and outlined with gold and white braid.  The inside of the egg is also completely lined with the same burgundy satin.  The lining was contoured by sewing in darts in a manner to fit the eggs interior.  The insert is a picture of the Garden of Gethsemane mounted in a scroll sawn and engraved frame.  The oval opening is also decorated with gold braid.

"White Buffalo Pair"
This ornament style diorama emu egg features oil-painted background showing sky and mountains. The addition of moss and other inserts gives a lovely three-dimensional effect. The addition of three layers of glitter on the outside as a finishing touch adds to the three-dimensional look.

"Mothers & Babies in Springtime"
A small figurine of a North American Indian Mother & Baby beside
a  lake.  She has just bathed her baby & is drying him off.  Behind her is a hand painted scene of mountains, trees, their tepee & greenery.  There are also real rocks, trees, real sand, real pine cones, and spring flowers.
There is a female deer and in front of her (which barely shows) is her baby  laying in a bed of moss in a hollowed out area.  On the back of the egg is a painted apple tree with blossoms & a hummingbird.
