Since 1999,I have been working with sculptor Tom Faught in
his Makawao Studio on Maui. Under his encouragement my focus has
been shifted to sculpting in stone. The simplicity of tools used
and the variety of available rock to carve excites all of my sences
from the "PING" of hammer and chisel to the cold smooth
feel of a finished piece.
In my work I search for a harmonious
balance of shape and form that is pleasing to the eye and pulls
the viewer to touch. I'm constantly finding the natural beauty
on Maui influencing my work from the mountains and valleys to
the moon and sea.
Aloha,
Tim Garcia
