Creative
stonework is really the foundation of what motivates and inspires
us in every project we work on. It is what we have the
greatest passion for and is the basis for what drove us to be
a part of the Landscape Design and Construction profession in
the first place.
The
'Stone Dragon' sculpture is a solid, dry-laid stone sculpture
created from locally harvested quartzite-schist. All of the stone
needed to create the sculpture was found on the clients property.
CountryScape stonemasons Justin Bardwell and John Buxton came
up with the finished concept for the sculpture from crude sketches
on-site and sculptural references from the client.
It
is not often that one is able to explore, without limitations
their creative abilities. The 'Stone Dragon' sculpture serves
to demonstrate
a potential in both design sensibility and master craftsmanship.
And although we hope the sculpture presents this, Justin Bardwell
and
John Buxton are humbled to be given an opportunity to explore
the boundaries of their imagination and skill.
