The constant gardener

My constant gardener is 127cm tall, mixed media and I just love her. Her hair springs forth from the centre of her hat and she has all sorts of interesting birds and even a cat in the garden on her hat. A source of constant observation and discovery, just like my garden.  SOLD

The big SPLASH

Watch out as she hits the water!!

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

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.

father and son reach for the stars

Our son and children visited and I was inspired to do this sculpture when I saw our son with his son. This sculpture is in plaster on paper mache. It is 65 X 36 cm  SOLD



My trumpeter is really into this music

This is the second of the three musicians. I love this fellow's outfit and he's really lost in his music. He is 59 X 28 cms.

Wedding couple dancing the rock and roll

I had a commission to make a sculpture of a couple getting married. What a dilemma as I didn't want them to look like a wedding cake ornament. I was delighted to hear that they loved dancing the rock and roll. Voila, here's the result and the couple were thrilled with their wedding gift.

Here's my photographer - a "sturdy" fella one might say!

My photographer was a commission from a production company in London.
I had a lot of fun, and challenges
making him. I especially like his shoe.




SOLD

And here's my elegant model

I was commissioned to do a sculpture for a production company of a photographer and his model. Here she is in all her lovely shape.

First one in!

I've been very busy making a few new sculptures as I've been invited to exhibit at a castle near Perigueux at the beginning of March. My diver is now ready. She is 34 cm tall including the base.
Now I have to start on a commission for two sculptures, each a metre tall. Great challenge!

Of course I can ski!

This was quite a challenge, getting her so off balance, but still staying on the ski. I quilted her jacket, just to keep her warm. The added pom pom on her hat was one I made sometime last year and found in my "treasure box". Note the snow in her hair. She is 44cm tall
