My first piece, the violin, was made for Melanie, my music teacher, who would not take any payment for my lessons because she knew I had no money at the time. Therefore, I made my first violin as a thank you gift. My violins (plus the violin in lavender), cello, double bass and harp are made from fallen trees in the forest. Beech, oak, silver birch and sycamore. Some are at least 100 years old.

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.
