Even in 1981 he knew that stone cutting art would be his way of life, and he entered the local college to study stone cutting art. In the early 1990s, a master stone cutter Dmitry Emelyanenko together with other artists stone cutters organized a small company – “Yakhont and Co”. Their stone cutters worked in the traditional Russian genre, and their business was one of the first in Yekaterinburg in the early 1990s.
However, in the late 1990s, Emelyanenko left the company and organized his own artistic stone-cutting workshop. Since that time, the master stone-cutter became interested in stone-cutting work in the genre of animalism.
While working in his workshop, the artist participated in various art exhibitions – regional, national and international. Emelyanenko received numerous diplomas for creative achievement in the art of stone cutting. Noteworthy, in 2010 the artist was awarded the Order of stone cutter for outstanding achievements in the preservation and development of the best traditions of the Russian stone cutting art.
