St GEORGE QLD
Went
down town to see "The Unique Egg" display. The artist is Steve
Margaritis, who first came into contact with the Emu egg when he migrated to
Australia in 1954. His natural curiosity
and instinct to create led him to start carving eggs, entirely self taught he
applied the skills he had acquired while carving wood as a hobby in Greece. He
never attended school and is self
taught. Steve derives a great deal of satisfaction from creating an object of
beauty & it gives him pleasure to see other people appreciating his art.
