Private commissions are available for sculptures and water sculptures using stone from around the world.
Pick the stone that best compliments your space and we'll work together to design a special piece made just for you.
The current lead time for a commissioned piece is 2-8 weeks.
You might see an existing sculpture that you like, but perhaps would prefer the same style in a different stone or in a different size. Or, perhaps you like certain elements of a piece, but not others. Many of my commissioned pieces are based on existing sculptures, with design changes made as specified by the customer.
Please note: The photos on this page contain both acquired and available sculptures.

Artist Bio Design philosophy
"I like to push the limits of the material whenever possible to uncover each stone’s unique personality. My sculptures sometime start out as mental images put to paper, but my philosophy is that the stone gets the ultimate glory. I use my tools to discover it’s most natural expression in the context of my vision.”
Inspiration
Continually drawn to spectacular natural surroundings, Mark and his wife moved to their home in Phoenix adjacent to the Mountain Preserve. Inspired and grounded by the beauty and tranquility of the Sonoran desert and surrounding mountains, Mark applied his artistic talent to the creation of unique rock sculptures, fountains, and water features, combining the natural splendor of the native rocks with an artistic flair. Over time, his work evolved into pieces of sculpture with a water component, rather than “fountains,” and then to sculptures in and of themselves.
A Photo Chronicle documents the creation of your sculpture from boulder to fine art.
Materials
Mark uses stones from around the the world, including onyx, marbles, travertine, sandstone, calcite, alabasters, and soapstone. His carvings explore each stone type to uncover it's unique qualities and natural beauty. Mark's use of stainless steel and stone, mixed media works, are a recent culmination of his range of style and diversity. "I'm always searching for new expressions in sculpture while nurturing my own unique style"
