Busy Bees in the Studio

Well Spring is in the air and we have some amazing projects happening in the studio.

First, a big thank you to everyone who submitted an application for our Stone Sculptor Assistant position. We had and overwhelming response from inspired and skilled candidates but in the end we just couldn’t choose one person…so we choose two!

I am pleased to introduce you to the newest members of our team.

Craig has already been in the shop for two weeks now and has proved to be a great asset. He has picked up on the inner workings of the shop and has already begun to adopt our sense of humor.

Brian will begin with us in the next week or so and we are thrilled, especially since he loves Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies as much as we do!

Both of our new team members bring with them a vast amount of experience and oomph and we are energized to put their artistic powers to work.

As far as projects go…there are many! The shop is overflowing with creativeness and there is little room for much else.

Recently Walt has been commissioned to design and construct not only a main floor powder room but also a healing loft in the Brantford, ON area.
The concept that Walt came up with for the powder room is called ‘River Wash’. It gives the feeling of a river bed that has been washed away. By incorporating many unique components such as Black Mexican Pebbles, Driftwood and even a heated Granite boulder seat Walt has been able to submerge the viewer into a feeling of ‘River Wash’.

The Healing Room has been designed to include 500 year old Juniper Root as well as the use of Fuschite for the counters and work areas. It is believed that Fuschite carries healing characteristics and can provide many benefits for internal and external therapeutics. This room will provide the perfect setting for reflecting and being at peace.

The crew has been working hard and we will be posting pictures once the project is complete.
