Fred Webster

 

Fred Webster is a native Alabamian who took up wood carving as a hobby when he retired from his position as a high school principal. The hobby soon became a passion, and Webster is now recognized as one of the state's most accomplished folk carvers.

His primary subject matter is biblical, such as the Temptation of Adam or Jonah and the Whale, or figures like angels in concert. There is a striking sense of whimsy to his small figural groupings, particularly the devils engaged in playful scenes of temptation.
