And I wonder if they would share their thoughts on what ethic they follow as a result of Wayne's influences? I would guess that they would each, as artists, somehow make the efforts to differentiate their styles sufficiently from Wayne's. I know we have a carver here in Jacksonville Beach who does a wonderful job with ornate Polynesian-style carvings which are clearly in a different style from Wayne's.
