Stuart McGrath is a
master craftsman in stone, his training is in sculpture, architectural
and classical stone carving. All of his stonecutting is done by hand using traditional methods.
I have cut my teeth on a number of large projects, ranging from
some of London's historical buildings, to large scale lettering commissions. Along with
these larger projects I have undertaken many private sculpture and lettering
commissions. More recently I have carved a number of gravestone monuments
and memorials working closely with the family members and friends of the bereaved
in order to produce a unique monument sympathetic to their needs, that they are
unable to find with a regular monumental mason in Ireland.
I studied in Dublin to obtain a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Sculpture Degree. I subsequently travelled to Italy and London to expand my knowledge of Architectural Stone Carving. I have been apprenticed to several master stone craftsmen, earning a respect and a humble knowledge of this tradition, the way it has been done for millennia.
It has been said that a picture says a thousand words…… but I believe that stone has to be experienced to be seen
and felt to be truly meaningful. So please feel free to have a look around my website and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
