Artists Statment

Animals are an exhausting and exciting subject. There are such a wide variety of forms and textures, and so many ways of interpreting each piece. I feel that each animal warrants a different approach, and I enjoy experimenting with different styles and techniques.

I create both one-off and limited edition pieces in stoneware ceramic. I also occationally use other media - such as wood, wire and resin, and in 2009 I created a series of limited edition bronze pieces for Pride Of the Valley sculpture park in Surrey.
