SKETCHING IN STEEL
Entreé fork and cake fork samples for a current project
I don’t often draw or design new pieces … I have an idea and work directly into the material . This can be a very quick way of producing some new - it can also take many attempts and multiple versions before I get it right
How do you ?.

MY LONG WALK
Just back from 6 days of walking the South West Coast path with my great friend Rob
70 miles of some of the most beautiful and rugged paths I’ve walked - hardly a drop of rain the whole week but just a few drops of wine to keep us fortified ! All kit for camping carried with 2 stop offs in hotels to get cleaned up
A rather special challenge completed for me - having had nearly a year of ill health I set myself this first milestone to reach during some dark days as a way of focusing on recovery
My aim is to complete the whole path in sections over the next few years - as well as a few other life list challenges I have also set myself . It’s not the hardest, highest or most difficult challenges that are important - it’s the ones you set for yourself and complete
Normal service will be resumed as soon as my feet have stopped complaining .
