Chris mohr

Chris has been doing ‘woodworking’ for around 15 years, mainly pallet-wood-type stuff. He Bought a lot on Smith Lake in Alabama and found some of the neatest Driftwood. The Eagle “A” may be the Neatest so far. It was floating on our bank (pix attached) and he honestly didn’t know what he was going to do with it until after he began sanding, it became clearer and clearer. It took on the look of an Eagle Head and the Shape of an ‘a’, hence why he named it “Eagle” “a”. The Wine and Cheese Display Block is a common design, however every cut of wood is different, and every “Chink” isn’t the same. This one has a unique Chink along with a “Rough-Cut” spot that the knife fits in perfectly. Chris says It’s little things like that that make them “one-of-a-kind” because it’s very difficult to duplicate.

Stephen G Christie

Steve studied Fine Arts at the College of William and Mary, concentrating on oil painting and art history, in addition to punting and kicking for The Tribe. Following his fifteen-year NFL career, he continued painting but moved away from more traditional subjects and styles to develop his brand of abstract expressionism, landscape, and figurative artworks. Steve is currently a licensed real estate sales associate with Charles Rutenberg Realty in Sarasota/Bradenton and the surrounding area. He continues to give back his love of the game as a volunteer with the Lakewood Ranch, Florida High School football team.

Larry Gagner

Larry was a Florida Gator All-American guard and was drafted by the Steelers in the 2nd round in 1965. For the next four years, he was the Steelers’ starting left guard. He did manage an extra year with the Chiefs in 1972, following an auto accident. While at U of F, Advertising Design morphed into a painting passion. His SignsSublime.com website ministry transforms common road signs (and football nomenclature) into Christian prompts for the sustaining of one’s faith while traveling on American highways. These images are designed to be a projection presented (optionally by Larry himself) in a congregational and/or classroom setting.
