About the Artist
I was born in Surrey in 1964, grew up in Gloucestershire, spending holidays in Cornwall every year throughout my childhood.
I moved down to Cornnwall in 1994 after extensive backpacking around
the world and started collecting driftwood initially to burn before
realising it's intrinsic beauty and not feeling able to chop it up.
My first pieces were big chunky chairs and mirrors and over the years
I'd like to think that my work has become more refined.
I work in my clifftop workshop on the Lizard peninsula powered by a
wind turbine which is rarely idle as I face the prevailing
southwesterly wind.
Over the years I have amassed a large collection of wood as I am out
and about every day throughout the winter months but I am always
searching for the really sexy gnarly pieces that you only find once in
a blue moon.
Everything I make is obviously unique as no two pieces of wood are ever
the same and I endeavour not to use a saw, preferring to leave the
natural rounded edges caused by the wave action pummelling the wood
along the coastline and then sand blasting it on a beach or shingle bar.
I don't over finish my work preferring to leave the wood looking
similar to how I found it, shaped by the sea and sometimes riddled with
holes caused by marine borers, namely the wood piddock, Terrido worm
and the gribble, all of whom help to make interesting driftwood.
Save the dolphins, don't eat bass unless it's line caught!
