Catch of the day is a mixed media one off sculpture. It contains concrete, metal, mild steel and copper and is the largest sculpture in my “Nest” series. It is designed for the outdoor garden. It features 3 handmade fish that hang ready to eat once the bird returns to its nest. Swallows nest’s and other bird nests in the area were the catalyst for this series. Approx 3 mtrs to the highest branch. Branches consist of mild steel and have been infused with copper. The entire sculpture sways gently in the wind as do the fish.

Beyond the Moa sculpture consists of 3 large Copper and Steel Lancewoods with steel warratahs set into polished concrete bases. Inspired by the natives trees in the area the lancewoods fascinating evolution makes for an interesting read. Evolving to move out of the reach of the extinct Moa its juvenile form is depicted in this lancewood sculpture. It’s sharp lances are made from high tensile steel and the stems are mild steel with lots&lots of copper infused on them.The lancewoods sway in the breeze outside or would look equally as good in the entry to a home or office suite.
