I had the privilege of designing and making this memorial for the parents of their beloved family member and best friend who sadly passed away 🐕

They sent me the nose and paw prints 🐾 to carve into it as he only had 3 toes bless him.

His ashes fitted perfectly into the base so now if they move home he can go with them.

I am very happy with the end result as are they .

I am so grateful to have been entrusted with such a personal memorial 🙏❤️

Last day at Maxstoke Castle. I finished off my Double Koru on wood yesterday whilst demonstrating. I am really pleased with it 🤩

It is representing new beginnings, love , strength and peace as well as close bond between siblings, especially twins 🥰

My Orange Infinity Twist is standing tall and proud represents eternity and the coming together of two people connected by their underlying ❤️

My Fish Hook & Whale Tail in black soapstone on resin coated wood. Soapstone is only suitable for indoors because the acid rain eats into it.

The Fish Hook represents abundance, good health and prosperity because it was the main food source in NZ years ago 🪝

Having the Whale Tail attached to it represents protection, speed and strength because when there were sharks around the whales used to protect the fisherman 🐋

It also represents close bond between animal and human as well as safe travels.

I have this sculpture with me .artisan.show at Maxstoke Castle near Birmingham. These event is on tomorrow and Sunday and the gates open at 10am.
