STONES
Valco Flagstone is selected for its quality to accept the
inks without bleeding. The stone is shaped naturally
honoring its innate strengths, beauty, and natural faults.
The stone is prepared to accept the ink, by being
scrubbed, rough and fine sanded and then polished. The
inks are layered on the stone using architectural drafting
pens and stainless steel nibs in a crosshatch technique.
Stones are left to breathe and accept the ink between
layers. If specified, a personal message is placed on the
stone in illuminated calligraphy. Each piece is signed and
dated, and 'never' duplicated! A fixative is applied and
once dried a triple gaze is used to seal and protect the
piece. A UV protecting agent should be applied if the stone will
be exposed to natures elements in a garden or as a
welcoming item at the door.
