Even though I don't sculpt, Mr.Ponstingl's exceptional artwork is truly inspiring to me. I only wish I could see these one-of-a-kind works in person. <br /><br />I'm going to share Mel's link to these photos on Facebook! More people should know about Mr.Ponstingl's incredible artistry and craftsmanship! <br /><br />And continued success and blessings to you and yours, Matt! :-)Alexis Dyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18050471728551818151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-54165470359927757192013-01-12T19:10:31.110-05:002013-01-12T19:10:31.110-05:00Thank you very much for that!

I have dabbled in wood carving and understand the work that must've gone in to each of those masterpieces.

The more people that know about the work of Charles, the better! <br /><br />The house Mel lives in is unlike anything I think many of us have ever seen. It kind of reminds me a bit of Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, in that you can't believe your eyes as you take it all in. The wood carvings of Charles are perfectly placed throughout the structure, intermingled with other incredible artwork and mind blowing collections.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14834783583579792755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-31059012631015906572013-01-12T14:34:11.734-05:002013-01-12T14:34:11.734-05:00Matt this is your best off topic post ever!

Besides, I love reading anything by Mr. Birnkrant, I've read over his pages on the OSM many times over. His enthusiasm and love for these pieces are infectious. He's like a Guru, reminding us that our toys are more than just plastic, or in this case wood, but in many cases true works of art and creativity. Trips for our imaginations just as powerful as any great novel or painting could be.ROBOTIMMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735189972871010588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-79478480553355451042013-01-12T12:05:00.407-05:002013-01-12T12:05:00.407-05:00This is truly amazing!
