Artist’s Statement

I am 76 years old, a retired Hydraulic Mechanical Engineer living in the pretty harbour town of Mevagissey in Cornwall, who rather late in life has realised there is still so much more to do!

With no formal  art training, I do not claim to be a sculptor or artist - I simply call myself a structural creator. My media is mainly type 304 stainless steel tube - a product that I have much experience with in my past life, precision prepared and assembled onto a polished quartz base.

Stainless Steel  has been used for Sculptures around the world - each different and exciting - Alfaro, Sempere, Gabo and Fibonacci have inspired me to create similar forms of my own - Fibonacci’s Sequence and The Golden Ratio appear magically in my work given the right light conditions leading me to name my pieces taken from ancient mythology.

Winged gods Nike, Horus and Icarus are my current models at around 600mm (24 inches) high.

My favourite piece is Nike as the wings of this piece appear to change form before your eyes as you pass it by.

I hope you like my creations.
