Tree spirit

This is a carving of a tree spirit. It is a traditional fellow. He is about 323mm tall and the log that he
occupies has a diameter of 140mm to 150mm. He weighs 3630gms. This carving is for indoor
display only.

Sculpture - meditation

This is a sculpture called 'Meditation'. The wood feels cool to the touch. His heavily lidded eyes are
gently closed and his mouth is relaxed. The colour of the wood adds to the feeling of calmness that he
presents. The natural splits in the wood, from drying out, only seem to add to the lightness of the
piece. It is as if it were a coconut husk. The sculpture must be kept indoors. It measures 315mm tall
and from 140mm to 185mm in diameter. It weighs 4675gms.

Tree spirit - warrior

This is a tree spirit carving of a warrior. He has styled his hair and adorned himself with feathers and
an earring. He is part of the way from being a tree spirit to a sculpture. He would make a splendid
addition to an indoor display that included ferns, creepers or a cheese plant. He measures 400mm tall
and from 160mm to 200mm in diameter. He weighs about 6000gms.

Tree spirit - eating fish

This is a tree spirit carving of a man eating a fish. I wanted him to display savagery in the style of a
Maori warrior dance. So he has a big, snarling bite on the fish. This makes him a sort of guardian to
your house. Feng-shui with bite. He measures 204mm tall and from 170mm to 190mm in diameter.
He weighs 3430gms.

Tree spirit - Sailor on the shore

This is a tree spirit sailor, which makes him a pretty unusual character.  He measures 310mm
tall and from 130mm to 150mm in diameter. He weighs 3390gms.

Tree spirit - Zebrano door wedges

Tree spirit door wedges carved in zebrano, and having pine wedges.

Chess knight door wedge made of oak

Chess knight door wedges made of oak. Coloured slightly yellow so that they look as if they
were once part of a chess set.

Antique design and finish

This bedside cabinet was one that I designed to look old. It has brass hinges
and good dovetails. I made the top out of pieces of unusual dimensions in order to
increase the unique appearance of the piece.

Pirate cabinet with a secret

This bedside cabinet was made for a young man who obviously yearns for the
open seas and freedom! It has a drawer with a brass pull, serpentine hinges and
a hidden compartment containing pieces of eight and a treasure map. Arr. Making
something like this is always a very pleasant experience!

CD rack made of pine

This small cabinet was made of pine and has a good sized star set into the top.
It is about the right size for storing CDs as it happens. It certainly has that
Glastonbury look about it.

Shelters two furry friends

Two friends rented a house for a little while and therefore could not install a cat flap in the
door. So I made this shelter for their cats out of old kitchen units. I put some roofing felt on
to keep the weather out and they added two old cushions. No complaints from the cats.

Hall cabinet to tidy the wires

In a modern house, in the hall by the front door there is often a telephone point. What with
all the electrical needs we have these days there can be quite a lot of wires and machinery.

I make bespoke cabinets like this one and the hall becomes tidy once more. Also, I love to
decorate the cabinet, as you can see.
