The essence of nature around us can be expressed with simple clean lines and movement. I try to capture this essence, to evoke memories, without the complication of unnecessary detail.
Bronze has for centuries been revered for its unparalleled qualities by sculptors. I take pride in the hand craft nature of what I do and have been on this journey for more than 30 years. I do a variety of work from jewellery to sculpture and my work is exhibited throughout New Zealand and is held in private collections in New Zealand, America, Europe and Asia
I qualified as an industrial designer the 1980’s but I’m fortunate that my work has allowed me to follow a different path.
Bronze holds the same allure for me as it did for all those who have worked it for centuries.
I like my work to have simple clean lines and I take pride in the hand craft nature of what I do. The process is as important to me as the final product.
Everything I make is individually cast and finished by hand to capture the warmth and beauty of bronze for everyone to enjoy.
