Nate Fudala enjoys making sculptures and functional art out of recyclable materials. He likes painting and drawing but enjoys creating art that has more of a purpose than just hanging on a wall.
Fudala, a Fine Arts major graduating in the spring, is not only a talented artist but a versatile baseball player for the Flagler College men’s baseball team. The four-year player began his baseball career at Flagler as an infielder but developed into a utility player.
