Rommel the Fox, after the desert fox, a German general. This piece is based on turning the table on the hunters and the hunted. My intelligent and arrogant fox is hunting the chickens. The head is clay and compressed sawdust. They eyes are from an old teddy bear and are painted with oil paint and more dust. The body is sawdust over cotton wool. The red coat is from Oxfam. The waistcoat is made from beech with acorn buttons. The legs are oak and silver birch. The fingers and toes are twigs from a sycamore. The tail is from a sweeping birch broom. The wood fungus supports a clay and compressed sawdust rat.

Born the first son of a coal miner from a fishing village called Seaton Sluice, Northumberland, Newstead left school at the age of fifteen to become an apprentice boat builder, Northumberland. There, he worked with tradesman who taught him his craft and who to this day he describes as "˜truly remarkable'. After concluding his apprenticeship, Newstead joined the merchant navy as an assistant carpenter. This permitted him to travel the world during his 11 years with the Navy. Newstead concedes that this was an invaluable experience for him, and in the exposition of his craft. Each new continent, land and city brought with it a new perspective within which he saw different art forms which he could later work with and manipulate into a style that he now uniquely stamps as his own. Newstead returned to Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire. Being taught to play the violin has re ignited his love of art. The essence of his life is captured in the beauty of his sculptures, which are truly unique and remarkable.
