Dan is a gifted artist, the talent, and owner of Johdan Stone Art.
 Dan
has been honing his skills as a soapstone artist since 2001 when, he
was given a piece of raw soapstone from his friend, mentor and well
known soapstone artist; Ben Henry.
Ben knew Dan could draw, paint and race stock cars. So why not carve soapstone?
Dan
spent more and more time at the Six Nations reserve with the Henry
family, watching listening and learning what skills they had gathered
over the years. It took time before he decided to become a carver full
time.
Dan has achieved what few others
have — finding success doing what he loves. Joyfully Dan creates in
soapstone; bears, eagles, turtles, inukshuks to name a few.
The forms Dan sees in the rock, he is able to bring to life. |
