About the FFA Emblem
|
Referred to as "A Ton of Pride", the Premier
FFA Edition Emblem weighs in around 3600 pounds and stands 80"
high. The base is 17" tall, 60" wide and 32" deep. The base
provides a welcome surface for sitting or standing, allowing those
who want to get 'up close and personal' to do so with ease. The
emblem itself is 8" thick with a 48" diameter center. Made of the
artists own 'ThemeCrete' aggregate composite, the FFA emblem is
cast over an interior structure of 3/8" rebar and gage-galvanized
welded mesh solid construction. "Lost Wax" techniques give the
emblem all the quality and detail of cast bronze statuary. Able
to withstand a 150 mph wind gust, the FFA Emblem is etched in a
bronze patina lithachrome monument finish providing lasting beauty
and resilience to exterior elements. Each emblem is hand made,
has the FFA Motto on the back and has a place for a bronze
Dedication Plate to memorialize or honor individuals, groups or
achievements. No installation is necessary as the emblem is
designed to stand proudly where ever it is placed. The emblem is
lifted and placed using the removable eye bolt that is included.

 About
the Artist
A sculpture to honor one man; one who had
touched the life of his son Cody as well as countless others,
Terence had no idea how this
Texas FFA advisor would react.
Richard LeBlanc knew in an instant this was meant to be shared
with everyone who loves FFA. Calls were soon made to the FFA
National Headquarters and licensing ensued. An original
endeavor meant only to acknowledge the retirement of a beloved
FFA advisor and stand proudly identifying an exceptional school,
this FFA cast emblem will memorialize distinguished individuals
and schools everywhere. A Texas FFA Alumnus who wore his blue
jacket proudly, Terrence's FFA Background is an integral part of
his work ethic.
Already having achieved artistic and commercial
success with thousands enjoying his trademark 'ThemeCrete'
creations, Terence is grateful to be able to devote all of his
time to his art. Terence Leon Zulkowski has formed TLZ Artworx
as an exclusive subsidiary with one mission: "to make available
the finest cast edition of the FFA Emblem ever created." This
gift will stand to honor not only Richard LeBlanc, but all who
make FFA great across the nation. A native Texan, Terence and
his lovely wife Deborah have two sons and two daughters and
reside in his home town of Rosenberg, Texas.
