Ice Carvings by Ben Firth and Family









        




     The sculptures below were carved by us at the World Ice Art Championships in Fairbanks, the Alaska State Ice Carving Championship at the Penninsula Winter Games in Soldotna, and the Crystal Gallery of Ice in Anchorage. Click on the pictures for larger views and click on the years for more pictures and information about our ice carving those years.   For each year there will be pictures of  the sculptures in progress and different views of them finished. Some will include drawings and plans and some of the thoughts behind the sculptures.  It will be some time before I get all of this up on the web site, but eventually I hope it will be a good history of our ice sculpting. The works of art are gone. What remain are the pictures and the memories.
