Violet Will Always Be Remembered
Violet had a really cool Batman-shaped marking on her chest that made her instantly recognizable. I wanted to make sure that unique detail became part of her memorial.
I hand carved the symbol into a natural stone I found on my own property, creating a one-of-a-kind memorial that represents something special about Violet.
Thank you to Byron, Monica, and family for trusting me to create this piece and honor Violet’s memory.

Purple slate carving for Orange Nursery and Stone Supply, a great supporter of it’s CARV’d
|
4/2/20: Every year the manager of Orange Nursery and Stone Supply, Joe, takes his beautiful rescue dog, Halo, on a coastal trip in the Harley Davidson. Halo has her own sidecar to ride in with her very own goggles. This yearly trip inspired my "This Rescue Rides" carving of the United States of America, Halo and Joe in the Harley and a compass logo. I was inspired by the amazing artwork and slate carving of Kerry O' Furlani in carving the ocean.
Xavi Memorial
6/1/22: Memorial stone carved for departed family member Xavi. Xavi was a loving dog and brother to his other family members. This stone captures his playfulness and his leashes that are kept in his favorite Star Wars bookbag. It was an honor bringing this stone to life. This stone was in the backyard of Xavi's mother and it was only fitting to have him immortalized in the very stone that will lay next to him in the yard.

Murphy Memorial Stone
6/1/22: it's CARV'd was honored to memorialize a dear family member who passed recently by the name of Murphy. Murphy was a beautiful dog who loved to play, was super friendly with my kids and a loyal member of the Pastore family. I wanted to capture Murphy's innocent eyes and as he was a labradoodle mix and if you know they have interesting hair. It was a very challenging piece to do as I've never done such complex hair, but it came out amazing. Thank you for trusting the process and RIP Murphy.
