My sculptures are individually hand crafted using non-traditional materials and idiosyncratic techniques that are a result of years of creative ingeniousness! In combination they create surprisingly solid, substantial feeling, and delightfully tactile forms.

Each piece is built in multiple stages beginning with salvaged materials to create a skeleton and newspaper to add bulk.  Features such as ears, whiskers and antennae are added using wire and scrap wood.

The form is then sculpted using a paper mache recipe specific to my own requirements.  After a few days drying time the piece can be sanded, painted and then decoupaged with handmade papers or clippings.

Each sculpture is unique and the final look is subject to the materials I have available at the time of creation.

A coat of varnish gives them a protective layer and I am currently testing my sculptures for life outdoors.
