Description

I have been a Sculptor for 30 years. I studied at Manchester Polyechnic and St Martins.

I help run metal workshops at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park as well as creating works to commission and my own work.

I work in Steel; forging, welding and galvanizing the sculptures. I also do decorative Gates and Railings.

I’ve received public commissions for Ayr, Plymouth, Filey and West Somerset Councils, Jersey Heritage, Blackpool Re’, Y.H.A. Whitby and the R.S.P.B. Conway. Although I have undertaken major commissions for public Authorities, I also do smaller scale private work. More recently, I’ve been focusing on metal animal sculptures.

Please view the images below to see some of the range of my work and email or telephone if you would like to discuss a new piece of work or to buy an existing piece of work.
