After many years working with stone as both a stone carver and a letter cutter, a new idea came to me which would lead to me changing from what I knew to a new exciting challenge, working with an unknown material, wood. For me the beauty of working with wood is that it is a living organism. Each wood has its own unique scent and texture. Due to its fragile nature it needs to be treated with the utmost care and delicacy and the respect it so rightly deserves.
Ian Evans-Boiten has been working in stone since 1996 when he began a 3 year stonemason’s course in Edinburgh. During this time, he also studied stone carving and lettering. Much of his work is inspired by his religious faith and a love of stone, in particular native stone, such as Caithness and Ledmore Marble.
