‘Regalia’ explores ceremony, presence, and performance through the Red-tailed Black Cockatoo’s extraordinary crest. Raised like a ceremonial headdress, the bird occupies a moment of poised authority. The composition draws on operatic theatre, where stillness can be as commanding as movement, and where form, posture and silhouette convey power without spectacle. The piece is sculpted by hand in clay, which is then moulded and cast, creating the underlying form. Over this, each feather is individually hand-cut and painted from archival paper, and layered, allowing for a texture and delicacy that cannot be achieved through casting alone. This sculpture captures the bird’s territorial confidence and regal flair, chest proudly lifted, shoulders set, and her magnificent, feathered crown fanned like a stage-worthy headpiece, commanding attention with theatrical poise.

‘Running Wild’ captures a moment of instinct and urgency, drawn from the familiar sight of pheasants navigating the British landscape, a species long embedded in rural life and culture. Show low to the ground and mid-stride, the bird reacts to a presence sensed rather than seen, holding a moment of tension and awareness. The sculpture is first sculpted by hand, before being moulded and cast to create the underlying form. Each feather is then individually hand-cut from archival paper, painted, and carefully layered onto the surface. This labour-intensive process allows the plumage to retain both delicacy and structure, blurring the boundary between sculpture and drawing. By freezing this instant in time, Running Wild invites the viewer to look beyond familiarity and consider the instinctive decisions that shape life in the countryside, where tradition, wildlife, and survival exist side by side.

Barn owls are among the UK’s most iconic and beloved birds of prey, instantly recognisable by their pale white plumage, golden speckling, and soft, heart-shaped face. Often glimpsed gliding along country lanes or perched silently in crumbling farm buildings, they carry an air of quiet elegance and mystery. Entirely nocturnal, barn owls possess specially adapted wing feathers that allow them to fly without a sound, making them near-invisible hunters of the night. Their ghostly presence and silent movement have captured imaginations for centuries. In Celtic and Druidic traditions, barn owls were revered as Guardians of the Underworld, seers, and oracles able to pass between the worlds of the living and the dead. In various African and Native American cultures, they were viewed as omens of death, yet also admired for their solitary grace and supernatural beauty. Titled Solstice, this sculpture reflects the delicate balance between light and dark, evoking the barn owl’s spectral flight through twilight skies. A fitting piece for both contemporary and rustic spaces, it brings a natural, ethereal essence to any setting.

The Great Distraction is a series of contemporary figurative sculptures exploring the tension between human attention and the natural world. The works take the form of hybrid human-animal figures—Minotaurs, ram-like beings, and other mythic forms—rendered in textured ceramic surfaces that evoke earth, erosion, and natural formation.
These figures reference ancient archetypes that were once revered or feared—beings associated with power, instinct, and the forces of nature. They stand grounded and physically present, their forms suggesting strength, weight, and permanence.
Yet within the works, that power appears redirected. The figures turn inward or away, their attention disengaged from the world around them. Rather than embodying dominance or presence, they suggest a quiet relinquishing—an unspoken transfer of agency away from the body and into something unseen.
This contrast lies at the core of the series. The figures remain connected to nature in form, yet disconnected in awareness. What were once godlike embodiments of natural force now appear diminished, not through loss of strength, but through a shift in attention.
The Great Distraction reflects on this condition: a state in which presence is fractured, and power is no longer held within the self, but deferred elsewhere.

Base – mounted on integral base with threaded hole in the underside.
“That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet,” wrote Shakespeare — here, the scent is imagined rather than real, inviting memory and feeling to take hold. A poised female figure lifts a rose in a moment suspended between performance and private reverie, capturing the quiet poetry of gesture.
Cast in bronze resin and reinforced with fibreglass, the sculpture balances strength with lightness. Textured Irish linen, a bodice inspired by a vintage opera glove, and delicate brocante motifs create a piece rich in narrative — a timeless, emotive work designed to bring warmth and wonder to both garden and interior settings.

“When somebody tells me I cannot do something, that’s when I do it.” ~ Gertrude Ederle
Gertie is a spirited tribute to the trailblazing swimmer who became the first woman to cross the English Channel. Brimming with determination and joy, she captures the essence of youthful courage and fearless adventure. Sculpted in iron resin, her poised limbs and fluid form convey both strength and grace, while her playful expression hints at a quiet defiance—an unwavering belief in what is possible.
More than a moment in motion, Gertie is a celebration of resilience and empowerment—an invitation to meet life’s challenges with boldness and heart, just as she did.
