Working from my studio in rural Dorset, I sculpt and craft my one off animals and curiosities entirely by hand. Using needle felting techniques alongside a variety of other craft skills I expertly manipulate luxury natural fibres into my stylised and tactile pieces. My unique and beautiful heirlooms of the future are exquisitely crafted with meticulous attention to detail and an eye for the individual characteristics of each piece. Playing with the traditions of taxidermy and the impression of what is real; I carefully observe and interpret the animal world, creating a wonderful menagerie of pieces that become instant talking points and items to treasure. Needle felting uses barbed needles to poke and sculpt wool and other natural fibres into a solid three dimensional form. The technique has very few limitations and I find that this freedom feeds my imagination greatly. My work is constantly evolving and I am always happy to discuss commissions and special requests. I live in a little cottage in Dorset and when I'm not playing with wool I am busy running my contemporary craft gallery Hawthorn and enjoying the occasional sneaky pint. Please note that my creations are sculptural works and are not intended as toys or for little hands. Each piece is individually named and signed.

As an Sculptor and woodturner based in rural north Dorset,much of my inspiration comes from the surrounding landscape,and the amazing timber that i source locally from storm damaged trees that mostly have come from the gardens of my former milkround customers. My passion for wood comes from my grandfather who passed on his deep love of creating in timber ,also in my twenties i met Dave Roberts RPT,a magician with wood, who opened my mind to the world of lathe turning. After only a few lessons Dave told me that i had "the touch" and should go away and play.... so play i did,experimenting with a wide range of timbers and techniques. The more i learned,the more my desire to create art from timber grew,developing into a love that has never,and never will leave me In 2011 the opportunity arose for me to spend much more time in my garden workshop and develop as an artist. I have a great passion for including a very organic look in my pieces with natural edges and burring,for which i had to develop a slower and more precise method of turning, giving my work a distinctive style. After some encouragement i joined the Dorset Visual Arts and successfully participated in Dorset Art Week followed by excibitions at NT Stourhead and Bridport Arts Centre, My work is also permanently excibited at the Cygnet gallery in Shaftesbury and available through the Dansel Gallery ,Abbotsbury
