Subject matter ranges from abstract to realistic, classic to whimsical. "Some of the marble and soapstone was sourced locally. Each piece requires hours and hours of hammering/chiseling, followed by additional hours of filing, sanding, and polishing ", explains participating artist, Alan Rhody. "Come meet some very talented sculptors. This is a noteworthy collection of professional-grade, handcrafted fine art. "
