Our Story

The Granite Garden Gallery is a sculpture studio and outdoor art gallery located on a historic quarry in Downeast Maine started in the summer 2003 by Obadiah Borne Buell.

Here we sculpt artwork and create beauty to adorn your home and garden from up-cycling the abundance of granite left behind by the quarry industry one hundred years ago. Each piece is handmade at the studio by fusing old and modern stone working tools and techniques. Our sculpture reflects nature’s abundance of spectacular geologic forms.

We welcome you to visit the gallery, wander through the granite quarry on our walking trails, marvel at unique native flora, and enjoy the beauty of our flourishing vegetable and perennial gardens.

Let the raw material of the quarry inspire you to dream up landscaping and sculptural possibilities for your home and garden. We look forward to meeting you!
