Inside the workshop
From block to figure.
Each piece begins as a raw block of stone — chosen, set in front of the artist, then shaped over weeks or months. These sequences trace the work as it emerges, stage by stage.

Two squirrels for a gate.
A pair of squirrels for the gate piers of a private residence in Bergen County, carved in the studio in 2020 — from the rough block to the finished piers.
