Edgar The Bear (Click here for Adventures of Edgar the Bear stories) |
 |
In The Beginning A simple old tree located on Third Avenue in Edgar sparked the idea of a tree carving |
|
Work Begins Artist, Brock Jansen of Carving Creations, Rib Falls, began carving his creation in the fall of 2004 |
|
 |
Starting to Take Form Edgar The Bear is starting to become recognizable with two of his legs clearly visible. When carving is completed, the next step will be preserving the tree and staining it for a more realistic look. |
|
Completed Edgar The Bear came to life in 2005 after the stain was applied. The tree, titled "Water Break", shows Edgar taking a break in a broken water main. |
