I have always enjoyed life drawing and my intuitive feel for the
movement of the body and the experience gained from this medium, inspired me to move into the third dimension. Through my sculpture I try to reach the minds and hearts of fellow human beings - reminding them
of the inner joy of life, by transforming moments into sensual and tactile sculptures
I believe there is no better way to train the sculptor’s eye
than traditional classical study of the nude model. With this essential knowledge in hand,
the figure can then be confidently created and abstracted to an individual style. My work has historically been more representative, but a
recent development is a move to the abstract. In 2005 I was awarded Best Visual Artist at the ‘Art of Love’ Exhibition, South Bank, London, and the Solomon & Whitehead Award for the Best Figurative Exhibit at the SWA.
