Creative Furniture & Relief Sculpture

Creative Furniture
An innovative design process is used to produce the pieces that are made from reclaimed solid English oak and other recycled materials, making the furniture very eco friendly.

A creative process is applied to the design of each of the pieces whereby the wood is worked ‘with' instead of attempting to make it fit into the prescribed and more traditional perception of what a piece of furniture should look like, or how it should be made.

Each piece of furniture has a solid wooden top set with a custom designed base, back or legs. The result is a unique design, that can stand alone as an outstanding piece of art while retaining just the right amount of practicality and appeal.

Relief Sculpture
The sculptures are created using putty and acrylic on canvas providing the sensual shapes, contours and lines that throw their own shadows on the work depending on the source of light. Some of the pieces are finished using deep colours which are rich and vibrant and lend themselves well to the final sculpted work, while the tactile surface of both the coloured and plain pieces is both pleasing and interesting to the sense of touch.

The paintings are crafted in the tradition of pargeting or the ancient tradition of relief sculpture, known as bas-relief where the design projects only slightly from the base.
