Default Mr. Zavadil if you please...

The other day I was pleasantly surprised to see that Chipping Away is now offering a new book by our own Fred Zavadil, can't wait to look into this. I did a google search on the gentlemen and found an informative article related to his style ( I could definitely learn a lot from the man). An interesting read...

I also see that there is a YouTube video on him related to a sculpting class. I can't watch it now but I'll give it a shot later...

YouTube - Sculpting Class with Fred Zavadil

...not sure if the link will bear any fruit but I would thought I would throw it out there...enjoy!

Absolutely stunning!

The man is a walking ,talking phenomenon.
I'm so happy to hear about all the good things happening with his work and the wonderful commission. Whatever he ends up carving I'm sure will just flat out leave the congregation speechless and in awe.

Congratulations Fred!
