Public Art

 In the spring of 2024 I was commisioned to create  a large new Forest Pony for one of the gardens at the BBC Gardeners World Spring Fair , for details 

 In the spring of 2024 I was commisioned to create thirteen dragons for Go Southampton  to be used in conjunction with the citys Chinese New Year Celebrations, I created one large sculpture seen here and lots of babies each having its own character, look and pose. The large dragon measured aproximatly 6ft ( 1.82 mtrs in length ths smaller ones were aproximatly 60 cm across 

Wildlife creations Itchen Valley Country Park summer 2022

The countryside service at Eastleigh Borough Council commissioned me to create nine willow animals, we decided to create four grey squirrels in different positions and double the size to normal, a kestrel, a tawny owl, two magpies and a woodpecker all of which can be found in the barn

Their purpose was to provide interest for their visitors and to encourage children to look for the creatures that I made for them who regularly visited the park.

The animals needed to be attached high up on the wooden beams in the barn/ cafe area and needed to be secured in place.

I decided that they needed an internal metal spine and legs with spikes to go down into the beams. I used stainless steel for its anti-rusting properties and a variety of different willow strains for each of the sculptures.

In the summer  of 2022 I was awarded  Developing Your Creative Practise  funding  from the Arts Council, which enabled me to  spend  two day a week undertaking a  10 month residency at the the Tudor House Museum and Gardens  in Southampton. starting in September 22 and ending in the following June.  The focus for my time there was to experiment and create new work in response to the site.  For more details about the project visit my sister website
