Summary
My Wife, Pam and I sculpt together in sand, pumpkins, snow and small block ice. We have found that our sculpting abilities compliment each other and present a professional and creative work of art. Working together enhances our relationship and provides onlookers with fascination that we are able to carve together, closely slinging sharp knives and tools, and providing fact and fictional information for entertainment, with humor for all ages. Working with crowds increased our creativity and energy. Including onlookers in our sculpting entertainment creates experiences that will be remembered for years. |
