How is an artist able to convey "movement" through a stone carving?!

Not all carvers have this ability BUT Derrald Taylor does!

Look at his drumming Dancing Bears.

As the bear's arm comes down on the drum. you hear the beating over and over again.

You see the baton hitting the drum over and over again.

The caramel colour of the African (Kenyan) kisi soapstone charges the carving with a warm, energetic spirit. 

The rich green colour of the bear is magnetic.

Each stunning detail of LEADER OF THE BAND is illuminated by the stone colour.

Derrald's carving is always inspirational. 

When the sunlight strikes Leader,  the stone radiates energy and warmth.

Each meticulously carved detail bares witness to Derrald's commitment to perfection.

Notice the "braiding" down the backs of the legs, arms, and down the chest. 

This is one of Taylor's SIGNATURE carving features.

Taylor's carvings are pure magic.
