Born in North London, in 1938, I am a self taught artist/Sculptor working with various mediums, Marble being the primary one.
Geoffrey Bennision the Artist / Designer, and my Mentor for many years, gave me my leaning towards Architectural and Classical influences.
Much of my previous work is by commission.

Some of my work is the ordinariness that seems to pass through our lives unnoticed, but when featured in another concept and material - it takes a step forward!
Minimal explanation is the real meaning of my work.

Most of my work is in relief:- High and Low mainly in Carrara Marble, other materials I use are Terracotta, Plaster, Scagliola, Stone and Semi precious stones.

My work is suitable for both Interior and Exterior display. Types of other art forms:- Pietre Dura and Architectural, all work is crafted using mostly handtools.
Commission work considered.
