• Southbourne 'Green Ring' archway May 2nd, 2017

    This is an interesting commission as I was asked to design a piece of public art for a Crayfern Homes building development and decided to use the idea local residents have had as inspiration for my design. The residents idea is to plant trees voluntarily and create a green space [laid out as a large half circle] that goes all the way around the village. I decided an arch way with leaves, birds, a hedghog and trees is a perfect way to reflect this local project. They then asked for the writing 'Green Ring' to insure all would know what this archway reflects.

    This is before it's galvanised and is 2.8 metres high by 1.4 metres wide.

  • Bull rush and Scott's pine gate January 19th, 2015

    This is a gate to go in a very nice location near Pulborough, West Sussex. The gate will be placed near a pond, with bull rushes, and near some Scott's pine trees.

    The design is by me and is an outcome of my past designs and what the client had in mind.
