Ed Edmunds

Taken from Google search
Another day gone and one more day closer to being able to meet all the people I have befriended through Facebook. All the artist that have struggled before me to pave the way for learning on-line the craft that I have been able to enjoy and can't wait to get back to doing. 
This is my first trip to Transworld and I look forward to walking and talking with each group of vendors that attend. One of the people that I hope to be able to talk with is someone I have been a fan of ever sense I saw his show on the travel channel years ago. The show was called "Making Monsters" and has one of the best minds in the business, Marsha Edmunds. She is married to the man that puts all the madness together. He is Ed Edmunds. I watched every episode that came on over and over again. Watching him paint and create not only masks that you may have seen but did not know who created it, but also animatronics that will jump out and scare the poop out of you. 
There are so many creations that have come from the minds of the company of "Distortions Unlimited". I was able to locate the face and "liked" him on Facebook and it seems that he never sleeps. I would hear bell sounds going off on my phone and it would be Ed posting an article or a video to his Facebook page at all hours in the morning. Granted that I live on the East Coast in South Carolina and he lives on the other side of the country so it is expected to some extent that there would be a few come in at 1am or 2am. He only has just under 4,000 friends so he has plenty of room for more.
For those that who have not seen the show or do not know who this is, please crawl out from under the rock and check him out.


I can not say enough about this man, his team, and his company. I have yet to meet any of them and I look forward to meeting them all. If I lived closer, I would have my application filled out and ready to hand them in the hopes that they would hire me. The amount of skill it takes to get out so many different items out on time is immeasurable. I have to get a few nice pictures with them.
