Bio
From a young age I have been interested in sculpture and drawing.
I grew up in a small village just outside Ottery St Mary in East Devon and now live in a cottage in Yettington near East Budleigh.
I have always enjoyed sketching, painting and making small models, so on retiring from engineering it was a natural progression for me, using stainless steel as my medium to make sculptures of birds and animals.
From my drawings I cut and shape the stainless steel which I then weld together to form my sculpture.
Each one of my works are one offs, as each are made by hand although they may be similar, no two are the same.
