Welcome to my website. Here you will find images and information about my art as well as news
(below) of my current and forthcoming activities. Since I work mainly with two materials
– steel and clay (I have lately fallen in love with marble, too) – and I draw, I have split the work into three galleries plus
installations. The concerns are similar, whichever material I use: balancing opposing forces
and creating new harmonies. I find inspiration in the natural world around me and in
astronomical space. Because it is so incomprehensibly vast, I make small models that are
abstractions of my feelings: about love, life, death, sex, soul, God, art, myself... all this
whilst being sucked by gravity on to a spinning ball, hurtling through space at 66,000mph.
Please, enjoy your visit.

Interesting Times
I have been asked to curate the 2012 Sculpture in the Garden
exhibition for the University of Leicester, and have chosen
as my theme the hubris of consumerism in a fragile world –
a great way to assemble beautiful, witty, stimulating art!
