My techniques of sculpture and model making are self-taught
and all my work is of British wildlife. Birds are my main subjects although reptiles and insects also feature among my pieces, and while most are life-size, a few are smaller and some of the insects are much larger than life.
The first question everyone asks “What are they made of?”
Each work is created using an armature of wire and shaped Styrofoam onto which the final shaping is built up using epoxy putty. Surface detail is sculpted before the putty hardens and
the sculptures are painted using acrylic paints.
