Pieces of castings scattered on my work bench in the studio. Note the marble like finish on the pyramid and half dome shapes.

‘Gull’
A new page has been added showing images of ‘Gull,’ which is shortly to be cast and placed in a beautiful setting in North Wales.
Thanks to James Bigglestone for the photographs.
‘Oracle’
I cast this maquette and am very excited by the quality of finish and colour. The original form comes from another found object this time a piece of tree bark.

‘Temple’
First stage maquettes for a sculpture to be called ‘Temple.’
Inspired by some of the great stone circles. The individual forms grow from pieces of kindling, giving an organic feel to the structure. I have placed a model figure to give an idea of the proposed scale.
‘Whole’ – A finished maquette
These are photos of the 62cm maquette for ‘Whole.’ It is cast in HAC (High Alumina Cement). Copies in HAC or bronze may be ordered; for bronze you should approach Castle Foundry, contact me for copies in HAC.
An 8 foot version can be viewed at my studio during Helfa Gelf September 2013.

‘Crescent’
‘Crescent’ – currently in the form of an early maquette. The idea has evolved from kindling.
Armatures for work in progress…
