Strata I, 925 sterling silver, oxide Sculpture

I am a metal artist & silversmith. My work is inspired by the shapes and textures of natural forms and landscapes: fragments of sea-worn shells, the rock formations of a battered coastline, a curl of split bark, the dancing light and shadow of woodland. I also draw inspiration directly from the characteristics of the materials I use, working intuitively, allowing the medium to suggest a direction and to find a relationship with the subject matter. I work from my studio in rural Herefordshire and exhibit in the UK and internationally in galleries, at exhibitions and art fairs. My work is several in public collections, including The Victoria & Albert Museum, Manchester City Art Gallery and The National Museum of Wales.
