'As a sculptor I enjoy the spontaneity and creative energy of exploring any new or abstract form.

My sculptures resonate from many years living in the New Forest. I had an early affinity to the Keyhaven coastal marshes and spreading heaths of the ‘Forest’. There’s a oneness in these wide-open spaces, an emanation of life and energy that liberates the mind and allows unrestrained creativity. It’s like the landscape speaks to you. All that’s needed is to have an open mind and listen.

I often find my ideas emerge like a virtual form in the mind derived from perhaps as a series of unrelated ideas or they just suddenly appear. 

The process is an emotional synergy of thought, action and material. It’s great to approach a new sculpture raw and untarnished. I find the distraction of a single plane, like a piece of paper, can sometimes lose the clear spontaneity of that initial thought.'
