Yes, you don't have six months or eight months to get it done.
Ice sculpting you have to get it done right there.
(playful music) When we create an ice sculpture.
We are transmitting the message that you need to live in the moment.
You need to enjoy what you see in front of you.
(playful music) The more practice you get, the better tools you get the easier it becomes, and the easier it becomes for us to transmit a message through the sculpture.
(playful music) The message is love and the message is we are all going through very, very hard times and we are all struggling and these are cold days and better times are coming.
(playful music) I like when we get to inspire kids or adults.
You know, when a kid says, sees an ice sculpture and they are like, "wow, that's amazing".
I think the fact that we're struggling with the weather and the cold and freezing our fingers and the fact that it's so hard, I think it transmit a message of hard work and discipline and creativity.
(playful music) The biggest thing, the biggest satisfaction is if we get to inspire anybody to create not only the ice sculpture but any other art form it opens their minds like, "wow they can do that with ice, I can do anything".
