Incredible Pumpkin Carvings by Ray Villafane

Education from the School of Visual Arts in NYC.

Designs, DC Direct, McFarlane Toys, and Sideshow Toys. In his spare time
he likes to carve pumpkins and in 2008, Villafane won the Food Network
Pumpkin Carving Contest’s top prize of $10,000. His work has been
featured in numerous publications as well as having pieces shown at the
New York Art Directors Club, Society of Illustrators Museum of American
Illustration, Spaces Gallery, and Jordan River Arts Gallery.

The Impossible Stone Balancing Art of Adrian Gray
Adrian Gray
has been developing his art of stone balancing for many years. His
ability to create almost impossible to believe compositions has created
wonder and left witnesses in awe and mesmerized.
By very
carefully feeling the balancing point of each rock he handles - a
process that requires awesome skill and patience - Gray is able to
arrange them in ways that seem incredible. 'The trick is putting
together stones which look like they couldn't possibly sit on top of one
another. Only then can you you make something extraordinary' , Gray
explains.
All the stones in these pictures are balanced, strictly without the aid of adhesive, pins or computer manipulation. They remain in place through the natural force of gravity and friction. ‘Nature’s glue’ sustains them in these seemingly impossible positions and it is the capricious natural forces of wind or waves that returns them to obscurity amongst their fellow boulders.

knitted food
