This new Gallery replaces the former "Masters Gallery", which will work from now on as pure archive. Here you will find not only the work and art from folks who sell whips, but also from folks, who create their whips out of pure passion. And we have an additional gallery. It is called "The Gallery - Making of".

Wow, Rachel, that's beautiful plaiting. The transitions between the different plaits are perfect. That's something I still struggle with.

Thanks, Mark! Looks to me like you're doing very well! I have a lot to learn..... And I don't think I will ever run out of new things to learn in making whips!

Outstanding work Rachel, I like so much your choice to use these patterns in one color.

Very nice looking, Rachel! I like the bug.
I'll give it a try, Dad, but it's going to be really hard...kind of like trying to saw something in half using a banana.

Thanks, Scott! I felt bad for the bug. He looked so lonely; I chose to include him. He said he was feeling kind of empty, and appeared to people only a shell of what he once was. Poor fella

Beautiful whip Rachel! I love the way you change the plaiting configuration along the thong. It looks very unique and professional.

It reminded me of when I was a kid during summer, those cicada husks were handy tools for scaring your sister if there was nothing else to amuse you

Great looking whip, Rachel - but the bug.... Thank goodness we have no such fauna in Britain!
