:: CLYDEFEST and HAW RIVER FESTIVAL ::
SLIDESHOW(clydefest,size=large,delay=3)
ClydeFest is an annual event in Bynum, NC honoring the internationally know wood sculptor, Clyde Jones. Jones, 70 years old, has been creating these rough hewn figures -- big-eared animals like dogs, giraffes and elephants -- for twenty-six years now. They have been described by others as "whimsical" and "fanciful," rough aggregations of four or five pieces of found wood, cut quickly and nailed together with or without a coat of paint. Objects like baseballs and plastic flowers are used for eyes and noses. The works, which used to have the more formal moniker, "Haw Creek Critters," (since The Haw River flows nearby) have been exhibited all over the world, from the Great Wall of China to the Smithsonian Institute to area barbecue restaurants.
The latter part of this gallery displays images taken at the Haw River Festival.
