About V. Sompura

Sompura's signature style lies in his ability to work with white marble. He is often inspired by images of Buddha, but also works at times with more modern and abstract ideas for his sculptures.

Note: With all hand made stone and wood sculptures, there might be some natural erosion with cracks and spots, but that adds to the one of kind pieces that we sell here at Mystik River.
