Currently a full-time public high school art teacher in New England, covering subjects like drawing, jewelry design, an art foundation course, and sculpture, Val Kropiwnicki is still as devoted to his own art as ever. According to Val:
“Sculpture is art, it is flies, it is real and the notion that my flies might just be fishable or in even the most remote way related to things fishing is just icing on the cake for me. When I first became an artist my passion was art. Then over time my art became a habit and my passions changed to fly fishing. Now I am swimming in a river in which my art, my addiction, and my passion have merged, and it’s about time.”
