Colin Fenn, as a judge in 2015, provided a unique sculpture for our Waste to Art Exhibition, carving a pumpkin into one of his famous goblins. His little creatures, (all happy and none of them bad, but full of mischief), he says are simply objects of sensation and impression.
The power of the imagination, mixed with modern and in some cases quite inexpensive materials allow him to create in ceramics, carved stone and metals such as bronze, stainless steel, cast iron and also welded metals. His calligraphy in stone has enhanced many public and private memorials.
Entry forms for Oberon's Waste 2 Art Competition and Exhibition, prizes sponsored by Oberon Council and local businesses and service organisations, are available from Oberon Council and Library, on the Council website, on oberonfools.com website or Phone Kathy Sajowitz 0419 231 525.
