Pottery Pets - Hand sculpted to your design

Your dog in any pose

About the artist

I have been sculpting for well over 20 years. Many years ago when people first saw some of my dog sculptures, and indeed friends and family were frequently receiving sculptures as Christmas presents, they would ask if they could have a sculpture done of one of their own pets  but I had never really considered sculpting as a full time job! It was always purely a way to relax and because of always mixing with animal lovers in the world of dog sport, I appreciated just how much people really do love their pets. From those days, what started off as a hobby has grown into a very enjoyable profession.


Nowadays sculpting is a way of life, and the walls of my studio at my home are shelved to hold finished sculptures and models in various stages of progress. A store of porcelain is always to one side, and the work table always has something 'on the go' on it.

Originally from Jersey in the Channel Islands, I have lived for many years in rural France with my family and my animals. My dogs are my constant companions, and in the studio there are always several dogs and cats keeping me company. To break from the work table, I train dogs and also teach agility at home. The sheep certainly enjoy the entertainment of watching dogs jumping!

I am  passionate about agility and competing internationally is a pass-time that co-exists easily with sculpting.  In 2008 I again competed at various agility competitions in England where my work was available to view and order.   

 

 

Having qualified for the Crufts 2008 agility,  I represented France and displayed some of my work at the NEC.  In 2009 I have qualified for the regional agility finals, and both my  dogs, coming 2nd and 3rd in their region were two of the five selected to compete at the French Championships.  During the summer I will be competing in the East Midlands and South East of England and my work will be available at those competitions.  Please contact for further information.
