Biography

I Have a degree in Fine Art Sculpture and have been a practising artist for over 10 years. I have a studio in Shere where I specialise in metal work. I exhibit all over the country, sell all over the world, teach in my studio and run workshops in schools, I'm also happy to work to commission.


My work centres around nature but I also try to express a sense of humour and whimsy in the sculptures that I create,
often using bright colours or awkward poses to bring a bit of quirkiness to my work.
For many years birds have been my favourite subject matter, I feel they present so many possibilities as a source of inspiration
that even as my work evolves they remain of interest.

I spend much of my time working with children, bringing my metal sculpture workshops into schools,
allowing children as young as 4 or 5 to experience working with “grown up” tools and metal. I also provide tuition in my studio for adults who are interested in metalwork or sculpture.

Although I specialise in metalwork I also occasionally work other materials; clay, paper, plaster, wire and some years ago I attended a Lampwork glass workshop I immediately fell in love with the material and the process of beadmaking and began making my own glass beads
