Introduction |

My Artist Statement |
I am inspired by the history and stories from the Island I live on; Guernsey
A wealth of creative ideas abound at every turn. Victor Hugo was inspired while
living here with his writing.
I have made the Guernsey/Jersey Chess set, and like to sculpt and hand build.
Working with my dear potter friend who makes amazing large forms, which I then
wreck by adding and making holes in we have come up with a beautiful range of ‘Y&Y’ lamps.
