"Second generation of Sculptors" Zakopane Off The Beaten Path Tip by Pawtuxet

Marcin Rzasa continues the tradition of wood carving which was a lifestyle he knew all his life, having a father who was dedicated to his work. I find Marcin's art very different from his father's, which is more somber, religious, with deep meaning. Marcin's work has sensitivity and a bit of humor. After seeing him around his son and daughter, I could understand that he would create and enjoy children in wood as much as in life. When you don't understand a language, you tend to watch peoples' actions and facial expressions ... and I noticed there was a special bond between Marcin and his son...perhaps the boy will follow to become the next generation of artist and wood carver.
We had a lovely visit... stayed for tea... and I was so glad I had perservered until I met this creative man and sweet family.
