Raised on the west coast of Vancouver Island, Sean grew up respecting and feeling connected to the ocean and forest, and all beings who dwelled in them.

He was first drawn to soapstone carving as a youth, enchanted by the story behind a sculpture he was introduced to from Northwest Territories. However, it wasn't until adulthood that he would try carving for himself.

As an adult, his journey of self-discovery led him to explore healing and growth through creativity. A friend and spiritual advisor suggested that he play more, sing more, and let his hands express what his mouth could not. He was given a piece of soapstone and told to "scratch at this a bit and see what comes". Many hours and a room full of soapstone dust later, Sean and his first Stone Spirit creation emerged.

Today, Sean continues to honour the gift of healing that has been given to him. He shares his love for carving and for the inhabitants of the Earth through his Stone Spirit carvings, jewelry and other soapstone work.

He also has received training in Pranic Healing, and writes occassional articles for the Spirit Circle newsletter.
