He may have done a story on him. If you're down in the Sebago area, I'd call Gene and ask him if you can stop by and check out his work. He has a display room (more like a museum!) in front of his work studio with some of his work. That way, you can see his work for yourself. He doesn't mind visitors/potential clients, he's stated, as long as they call ahead before stopping by.
I recently saw some of Gene's carved fish for sale in an art gallery in No. Conway, NH. When I first saw his carved fish creations in his studio, i did not know they were wood until he told me! The detail was amazing!
Any future trophys I take will be brought to Gene.
