Carving detail.
column  
Background:
22 years experience carving stone.
B.S. Degree in Geology (Baylor University 1968), 30 years experience in stone masonry, began sculpting in 1980, Architectural carving in 1986, and started JVC Stoneworks in 1989.

Specialties:
Architectural and sculptural carving in limestone and marble.
Fireplaces, fountains, column capitals, relief carving, signage (lettering). Access to all Texas limestones, Indiana limestone, some domestic marbles.

Personal Statement:
I've been a "stone guy" all my life, hence the degree in geology. Realizing that I did not want to work as a geologist, I chose a career path in stone masonry to actually work with stone, and began carving as a natural progression of my "hands on" love of the medium. My ultimate satisfaction is bringing order and form to a raw block of stone.
