The concept of finding a piece of stone that’s been covered for over a million years and sculpting it into a work of art feels like second nature to Daniel. Utilizing the stones’ texture and colour to enhance the sculpture so that children and adults alike can touch the stone to get a feel of the rough and smooth surfaces to stimulate their sensors. The longevity and quality of the stone means that this sculpture will be seen for generations to come.

Daniel has been sculpting with stone for over 25 years. He started out as an apprentice stonemason being awarded Qld Training Awards Apprentice of the Year. Daniel moved on to restoration work on many prominent buildings in Queensland, South Australia and Melbourne. But it was when he started sculpting out of stone he found his true passion.

Daniel has worked closely with Councils and Schools to create public works of art ensuring that safety is paramount, that the public can interact and that the sculpture meets the brief. Once installed the sculpture is coated with a graffiti resistant sealer.

He has also worked together with other talented artists including those who work with different mediums to create amazing pieces of work.
