These beautiful stone sculptures were done by a Native American from Aquinnah. I asked him how he knows what to sculpt and he told me that he has to get to know the stone first… let it speak to him and tell him what it is meant to be… and only then does he begin the process of letting the spirit emerge from the stone.

The stone below is double-ended.

The face of a Native American.

The spirit of an eagle.

I particularly like the one below… I like the way the face looks peaceful and wise.

Something I find interesting about these sculptures is that when you’re holding them they’re both cool and warm…perhaps that’s their spirit from within.
