My Art
Below are examples of my art work over the years. Some of these pieces have been commissioned, many have been inspired and created by materials I have found on my walks around the county of Northumberland, on the beach and in the forests. The sea plays a large part in my life, connecting both my love of working boats and creating art and the ability to mix the two. The unique motion of the waves shapes and sculpts the drift wood often into the shapes of animals inhabiting the land so nature always has a hand in my work.
