Sculpture will take center stage at the Waterfowl Festival in Easton this year with Don Rambadt (right) as the show's Featured Artist. His work will be showcased all three days of the event - November 11, 12 and 13.
     Rambadt has been a crowd pleaser at the Waterfowl Festival since 1999. His one-of-a-kind sculptures offer a delicate balance of metal solidity with open spaces that allow the right lighting to make both the form and its shadow unique works of art.
     His award-winning work has been recognized nationally and abroad, including 10 years in the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum's "Birds In Art" exhibition and a solo show at the Wendell Gilley Museum in Maine. Rambadt's pieces can be found on public displays in museums and sculpture gardens nationwide and are highly sought for private and corporate collections.

Rambadt said he is especially honored at having been chosen as the Festival's Featured Artist this year. "The Waterfowl Festival is working to broaden its appeal to a more varied and younger audience, and still attract its longtime Festival supporters," he said. "It's really an honor that they consider my work traditional enough, yet contemporary enough, for the role of helping to take the Festival into the future." He refers to his creative process as "sketching in space.
