Testimonials
Jon is in my opinion one of the best sculptors preserving the traditions of Celtic carving in slate, stone and wood alive today.

/ Peter de Sausmarez MInstPI, Seigneur.Beautiful, subtle, a work of art.
Matthew Wilson on Channel 4 The Landscape Man
/ Regarding Jons Dragon WallI first became aware of the slate and wood carvings, and the drawings of Jon Evans, at The Festival In The Shire, (A J.R.R. Tolkien related event) in Mid Wales. From the outset, I could see that here was a dedicated craftsman, completely focused on his art, and versatile in his application.
