Artist Statement
​
Sculpting is my absolute passion. I want to show the ability and beauty of wire, which I think, is much underrated. To take a piece of wire and turn it into a beautiful figure, gives me incredible joy.
My challenge always, is to fulfill the remit of not only creating a subject as a piece of sculpture that will make you stop, stand and stare, but also challenge.
​As well as creating my own pieces, I
undertake commissions.
