The original Stone Spirit soapstone carvings by Island artisan Sean J. Deakin are an amazing work of heart and soul. Imagine the incredible connection as artist's hands and ancient rock meet to create each new Stone Spirit soapstone carving. A beautiful transformation occurs as pieces fall away from the raw soapstone and the spirit emerges. Sean's technique of "listening to the soapstone" allows the spirit of the carving to flow from Sean's hands through the one of a kind, unique soapstone carvings you see here. |
