Here's a gal enjoying a well-earned coffee break. With her grey hair pinned into a sensible bun on top of her head, a collared dress covering her from neck to toe and her slightly flushed cheeks and nose make it appear as if she's been working hard, or coming in the from the cold perhaps. She could easily tell the story herself, as most of Bruce Futterer's delightful figurines can do with their detailed facial expressions! This Coffee Lady is taking Fika* while clutching her saucer on a wooden stool and with great aplomb sits 5" high.
Bruce has been an avid carver since 1977. Since 2000, Bruce has won numerous blue ribbons at the International Carving Competition held each year in Davenport, Iowa. In 2004 his Santa Claus carving was selected as the National Grand Prize winner in the Woodcraft/Wood Carving Illustrated contests. In 2006, Bruce won Best of Show at the National Caricature Carvers Competition, and in 2005, he was awarded a Gold Medal for Scandinavian style carving from the Vesterheim Norwegian American Museum. Bruce was raised in Grand Marais and returns to the North Shore each summer.
*Fika is a typical Swedish tradition where you take time out of your day to pause and enjoy a hot drink and a snack.
