James Doran Webb is a talented sculpturist who creates animal art entirely out of driftwood. Depending on the complexities of the armature and anatomy, a life-size sculpture takes some 1,000 to 3,000 hours to complete. James is also environmentally conscious of the work he does. For every kilo of driftwood used, he plants a seedling on denuded hills in North and South Cebu. He started a program called 80,000 trees (www.80000trees.com) which aims to plant 80,000 trees over the course of five years. See his stunning work captured right here. Meanwhile, if you'd like to see more of his wonderful sculptures, visit his website.
