"Joy" is one of the collection I think of as State of mind.
Worked in terracotta clay, then fired and patinated in various polishes and stains.

Mounted on a base of solid Poplar wood. This piece is approximately half life-size.
This sculpture shows the relief, contentment and joy which comes after the long wait.
When one sees the work of the amazing Gustav Vigeland , it cannot fail to inspire you.
I find terracotta lends itself more to smoother works especially when one is trying for the  look of skin.

I was born in Shoreditch, London some 50 years before it became the global centre of art it is today. My story is that of the area: I grew up in a working-class house, left school aged 15 and saw my artistic impulses frustrated by the vagaries of everyday life: first working my way up in the world of hair and beauty, owning a business aged 18, and then marrying and having children. In my fifties, with my children all having studied at university, I took the chance to devote time to my art in a way I had never been able to before. I channelled much of what I had learned and experienced in the prior decades, creating works themed around what it means to be a woman, a wife, a mother and an artist.
