My inspiration is rooted in the purity of natural form, taking into account the man-made geometry of engineering and architecture. I relish every type of challenge, taking the piece from the original concept through the making process to the finished solution. I enjoy the manipulation of silver, using its malleability to produce flowing form, its reflective quality to emphasize line. In commission work, I draw upon an element significant to my client. Whether it be an entire dinner service constructed around the precise curve of a tail feather of a rare pheasant, a ceremonial mace inspired by the form of an aeroplane wing or the proportions of a Byzantine dome echoed within a claret jug. My personal descriptive language is about balance. The ultimate goal being to achieve the perfect equilibrium between function and form.
