Three Counties Show
22 June, 2010 – 7:51 pmI had a great weekend at The Malvern County Showground. Thank-you to all of you who showed interest and complemented me on my work-I hope some of you will visit me at my workshop.
I was able to carve The Three Hares motif on a piece of Tetbury limestone which is now for sale in my workshop.

A Peach for The Kymin!
30 May, 2010 – 7:23 pmAt the moment, I am working on a sculpture of half a Peach to go in an outdoor exhibition at The Kymin in Monmouth. This is a 3mth exhibition starting in July.
To launch the sculpture exhib there will be an open day on Sat 3rd July. I will be demonstrating and selling in this beautiful National Trust park. My friend and colleague, Missfire, will be putting a sculpture in as well being there on the launch day!
The theme is The Art of the Picnic- hence the Peach, a symbol for me of a glorious hot Summer, I am carving just the half so that I can carve the stone as well which will be carved separately from a piece of Forest of Dean Sandstone-the flesh is carved in Tetbury limestone.

I will post photos as soon as it is finished.
