Marble Fish

Fish in Alabama Marble. This project is a companion to Fish in Soapstone. When I started working with soapstone from the Alberene soapstone quarry in Schuyler, VA, I made a fish out of a sample block of soapstone. Last year, I picked up some marble from AM3 Stone in Sylacauga, AL, and this is my test project of their marble. I look forward to offering Alabama marble as an option for commissions!

This fish will be a stylized design with gothic relief carving of foliage in place of scales. It can been seen at the SCAN Gallery on Valley in Scottsville, VA from June-Aug 2026 along with a Limestone Fish carved by Bethany’s apprentice Maggie and one of her student’s sculpture in soapstone “Water”.
