Welcome to our blog!

Greetings from Ice Alaska 2009 in Fairbanks.

This year Joaquin and Donna will carve together in the single block competition. We have prepared and practiced since Christmas. We don't want to ruin the surprise with details so subscribe to our blog and watch and see our sculpture evolve.

Starting March 1st, Raul Quezada and Jake Lucas will join us for the multi-block competition. We'll be sculpting a piece entitled 'Alaskan Tradition.' This will be Raul and Jake's first time in Alaska and first time carving big ice.

You can see some of our portfolio pictures in the slideshow on the left of the page; double click on the show to see larger images.

We hope you enjoy the blog and would love to read your comments!

Sleeping Beauty's Castle


Joaquin carved Sleeping Beautys' Castle over Father's Day weekend, 2007, in Reedsport, Oregan, during the annual Echo Cup competition. It took 21 hours to carve, sand, and apply the wood preservative. He did all this from his head! He absolutely amazes me in his abilities. I guess that is what 30 years of dedicated experience and a God given artistic talent can do. He placed second in this event and that qualified him to carve in the national finals held in Chicago that year where he placed third in the nation. Way to go JQ!
