“Late yestreen I saw the new moone lie, Wi the auld moone in hir arme…” he bellows low with a feigned Scottish accent, tool in hand and a twinkle in his eye. Spoken verse, the echoes of emotive lyrics and the rasping of sculptures in progress are customary sounds emitted from the studio. Larger than life, Anton Smit is the embodiment of poetry, an apt term for this sculptor, derived from the term for “making.” Anton forms his own language through sculpture, the manifestation of his passion for expression and his profound Faith.
