What could be more ecological than getting to work on this form of transport!!   This delightful couple have been sold.

Extreme sports

I've done something new here placing the sculptures in a frame so that they can be hung on a wall. The two ladies are exceptionally good rock climbers - note the pockets for the powder, the rope and they're both stretching to reach the fasteners lodged in the rock. Rather them than me, but they certainly are having fun. The frame is 53 X 53 cm

Farniente, which means doing absolutely nothing!

I envy her, with nothing to do! She is 35 X 19 cm, plaster covered with paper mache. The only colour being the beach chair supporting her back.

Margo multi tasking and coping well

Margo is knitting the finishing touches to the band of her skirt, frying an egg, taking care of her baby on her back and then the cat chose to sleep at her feet! The base is 9 X 5 cm and she is 14.5cm tall. Price upon request.

Notice the baby tied on her back and the cat under her feet!

Rising stars of the Royal Ballet

So what if they're not all the same size!! There's a role for each of these future ballet stars. Their base is 50 X 28 cm and 40cm high. The teacher is very strict - they have to all wear black leotards, pink shoes and their hair has to be tied back. Price upon request.

This is the first version of Eve with her apple. Who could refuse her! Price upon request  SOLD

Eve - is that apple for Adam?

How could he refuse an apple like that? Her base is 23 X 12 cm and she is 37 cm tall. Her base, as well as other sculpture's bases are from recycled oak floors, about 200 years old. Price upon request

She loves me, she loves me not

I've added a red ribbon around her waist and prefer her like this.


Is he proposing, or is she just allergic to flowers? For this sculpture I started with paper mache, then plaster and then a thin layer of paper mache, followed by several layers of acrylic paint. The only colour is in the flowers. The sculpture is 80 X 50 cm

Little red acrobat

I've been working flat out making some new sculptures and also painting a few new works as I have a one man, or in this case, woman exhibition from the 17th September in a beautiful mill, which is also the tourist office in Tocane a charming village near us.

Another smaller acrobat. These little ladies are very popular as one can hang them on the beams without having to look for space upon which to display them.

Back view of the red acrobat

This acrobat is a great deal bigger than the other ones and I used a wire frame for her, which turned out a far more difficult way of doing things. She turned out well though with a very elegant, athletic shape and lovely hair cascading down all held together with a red flower! She is 70cm long and has an adjustable cord suspending her. She is for sale for 300 euros


along for the ride

Do I need to say more!!! The tandem was skillfully made by my husband Nick, also showing one of his many talents!

My three musicians needed a conductor, so here he is! He is 25X41cm
