Marcus Lyons, Palm Springs, California native, was born May 19,1949. Self-taught, he began sculpting at the age of 15 when he worked with the only medium available to him, terracotta bricks. His work with alabaster rock started in 1976,with a successful career as an artist beginning in 1978. He quarries the natural desert rock, choosing each block of stone for the art work he sees within their depths. Marcus Lyons\'s work has been described as to communicate a figurative style fluctuating between reality and non-representational. Over the years he has made his creations and movements in sizes varying from 16 inches to 8 feet and has produced a body of work represented in a number of countries.
