Deer in the woods
These two sculptures are both made from willow but the right hand one also has a minimal internal steel frame. This is useful when I want to show bent legs or a more dynamic pose.
I design the frame and have it fabricated by my blacksmith, so we still maintain total control over the final stance of the piece.

Willow Sculpture Artist
I have loved and been inspired by the natural world since I was a child and the ability to work as a Willow Artist and make willow sculptures representing the essence of animals, birds and other living forms brings me great pleasure. I love to represent movement and vitality in my work. My willow sculptures appear to have just paused in their setting before they are ready to move on. One of the nicest things anyone has said about my animal sculptures is that you can always see where they are looking!
