Acorns posing in the studio.Acorns relaxing in bed.The 21-inch-high Copper horse. Very heavy to handle, and pure wire couldn’t sustain its weight, so you can just make out the carving knives that give stability to those front legs.
The first crop of dramatic wire ideas – two dark green nazgul-style dragons perched high, a desperately fleeing red dragon with a big low leopardy predator one below him, and a green dragon trapped in a round glass. Hard to see. If you bought these things and would like them to be part of this gallery, send me a new picture please – jed2f4 at yahoo.co.uk.An old Irish 20p has a nice stocky horse on it. And, in this brooch, a green seahorse varnished on.
A commission for a woman in a laboratory! Living plants on the windowsill are now joined by a simulacrum.huge, heavy copper-wire apple with brass plug parts inside, arranged like seeds.Clodagh’s Angel. I was extremely wary of entering the angel-market, but the weight and balance of this winged lady were satisfying to create, and export, and the tide of requests-for-similar hasn’t been so big and drowning that I’ve become overwhelmed.Copper acorn up a tree. A twisty hazel tree – the acorn knows it’s out of place!Giant acorn, as long as a brick on the muddy brick-paving.

Truly a mythical blend.
I have limited patience for photography and uploading – I prefer to just get on and make things, so to continue a gallery experience, please click around the products for sale (on the right) and just seek pictures, ignoring the prices!
