About The Artwork
I have been inspired by these beautiful words from Wind in the Willows over many years, creating many differently designed artworks. I decided to use the image of a paper sculptured yacht for this artwork and hope you enjoy the free movement of the boat which is adhered into the sliced paper. I chose to write the text in Sumi which is a Japanese ink which will not fade. The highlighted words are written in gouache with the varying colour tones dropped in to create an interesting texture. I hope you can see the feathering technique which gives the work a further dimension, by cutting and lifting the paper to form the waves and birds. A hand embossed sun completes this work.

My passion is the art of lettering. I have been fortunate to have a career originally as a graphic designer and lettering artist and more recently as a paper sculpture artist combing calligraphy. I enjoy setting myself a challenge with each project, interpreting the text in an endeavour to create a pleasing aesthetic work of art. Over the 50 years of my career, I have explored many different mediums including original artworks, works on vellum, paper sculpture works as well as Artist's Books - one-of-a-kind and limited editions. I continue to enjoy my artistic journey, exploring the never-ending possibilities of the lettering arts. I am delighted and honoured to have my artworks represented by Saatchi Art and welcome your inquiries for commission work of art or exhibited works.
