Gordon Hudson is once again the captain of the ice carving judges. He has been involved in the Fire & Ice Festival for a number of years and has served as the 'Captain" of the Judges for last two years."
Bruce Bird is a self taught antler carver whose work is currently carried at the Path Gallery (Whistler), the Spirit Gallery (Horseshoe Bay), Sun Spirit Gallery (West Vancouver), and the Eagle Feather Gallery in Victoria. His pieces have found their way to various parts of Canada, the United States and Europe. Bruce trained as a leather carver and saddle maker in the 1970's but switched to carving antler 5 years ago, something he first tried as a teenager. One of Bruce's pieces was awarded third prize in the Expert category at the Central Fraser Valley carving competition in May of 2009. |
