Journal Entry
And the winner is....
For those of you who have been following my journals, this is an update to my February 25th post entitled 'Ice Cold Treat'
While in Fairbanks, I attended the World Ice Art Championship - Single Block Classic - an event where amazing artist teams transform a single block of ice (5'x8'x3', weighing 7,800 lbs) into magnificent works of art.
I left Fairbanks before the competition was finished and my curiosity got the best of me. I wanted to know who won!! And, I thought you might be as well.
There were two categories in the Single Block Classic competition:
- Abstract
- Realistic
And the winners are:
