The Artist – Chessmason

A Stone Sculptor's Insight

Sometimes we shape ideas about our individual selves, with too much emphasis on what we think are flaws and shortcomings. Learn to value who you already are and the qualities you already possess.

"The grass is always greenest, on the side you're standing."

Idea Inspired

In college, Colby would spend nights with a group of friends, who formed their own private chess competitions. During his first landscaping job, right out of college, he found himself staring at pieces of granite stone and thought..."Id love to hand-carve a chess set out of those". For 20 years, Colby developed his craft, always coming back to this idea until he decided, it was time.

Stone Cutter

After 10 years of landscaping, Colby branched off to start his company "Fieldstone Landscaping" as a sole proprietor stone cutter.

Landscape Design

Colby received his diploma in landscape design from Niagara College. He has always viewed his abilities to work with earth and stone, as his art.
