Ocean City...The Art of Wildlife Wood Carving!

Ocean City, MD is also home to the Ward Foundation's Wildlife and Waterfowl carving exhibition. It is the LARGEST of it's kind anywhere in the world. Taking place on the same weekend as the Kite Festival, the carving Expo is a REAL TREAT. 
It was the first show of this sort that I ever attended and to be honest I was expecting a "Country Craftsy" type Duck and Geese...BOY was I WRONG! This is HIGH ART and it is Sculpture at its very finest! You will be amazed at how these skilled artisans are able to give SOLID WOOD the appearance of being soft, velvety down. We spent HOURS at the expo and will now go EVERY YEAR!

Each gallery, like the others links to an entire page of FULL SIZE IMAGES...Enjoy!
