Show THE ZEPHYRJAN-FE- B PAGE 13 1994 IS IT REAL? OR IS IT URBANEK? For the last ten years and thousands of hours, John Urbanek has been "recreating" the Canyon Country in the basemant of his home. Painstakingly constructed from thin sheets of balsa wood, John has constructed a landscape so real and so accurate, it truly boggles the mind. One would be hard pressed to find a discrepancy between his model and an aerial photograph of the same area. For John, the project is a work in progress and always will be. "Building" the La Sal Mountains is next on his agenda. Let's hope that he takes a short break in the near future so that this amazing work of art and labor of love can be put on display, for the public to enjoy, admire, and be in awe of. BE |
