featured ice sculptors

Ok, I’m making progress restoring this set of galleries. Basically, these are galleries of ice sculptures from some pretty spectacular ice sculptors. I’ve got 2 newer galleries (1 brand new, actually) and 6 galleries kinda from the old site (but they might have new pics!)

By the way, for a little bit, the galleries might seem to heavily emphasize male, U.S. based ice sculptors. Honestly, it’s easier for me to get quality ice sculpture pics from ice sculptors that I know (mostly in the U.S.) and there are more male ice sculptors than female ones. However, I will make a concerted effort to broaden the galleries to reflect excellence in ice sculpting around the world, whoever they are and wherever they come from.

I’ve seen a lot of amazing ice art in my career and I’m frequently surprised that I’m largely unaware of some amazing ice sculptors, for whatever reason. But when I find out about someone, I hope I can share their ice art in these galleries and on the site. Eventually, I hope this page will have at least 20 or so galleries. (or more? 😳) Right now, the only order they’re really in is how they best fit on a grid. Anyway, I’m plugging away at it, so check back later if this doesn’t meet your lofty expectations 😜

Finally, I’m resisting the urge to put a gallery of my own stuff here just to act as filler. I’ll do that later when there are at least several more awesome sculptor galleries added! Let’s say a minimum of 15 galleries before I succumb. And at least for now, the galleries are in no specific order. I MIGHT have newer galleries at the beginning, but they’re also grouped according to the thumbnail pic size. Just so that it doesn’t look too crappy πŸ’©
