"Ancient Craft meets Contemporary Art"

I am an Engineer, Artist Blacksmith, Metal Sculptor and owner of Mountain View Gallery. I was born in Scotland and spend my time in the Bulgarian Mountains and at the Spanish Coast.

I love working with the beautiful materials of Copper, Bronze, Brass, Steel and Gold. From these, I've created a new generation of sculptures which transpose and reflect light and space. Three dimensional sensual figures are crafted and shaped using technically challenging skills resulting in unique, beautiful sculptures.

Intrigued by the solid beauty of classical sculpture, I wanted to further explore the concepts of transparency, reflection and multiple dimensions. Asking the observer to understand the outer whole whilst engaging in the swirling inner passion of its transparent soul. A new technique using the passage, shadows and reflections of light.
