SACRED ART
&
CHURCH
FURNISHING
Welcome. I am a traditionally trained Catholic artist making work for churches, homes and the sacred liturgy. My aim is to profess, in form and colour, in wood, paint and stone, that: "The Word became Flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory."
Crucifix, tempera on tulipwood, 150 x 130cm, St Francis Catholic Church, Warwickshire.
Our Lady of Walsingam, polychromed carving in sycamore,
70 x 40cm, Arundel Castle.
Altar with relic cavity, limestone and steel, 100 x 90cm.
Saints of Cumbria altarpiece (detail), tempera on tulipwood, 150x60cm, Christ the Good Shepherd Catholic Church, Workington.
ART AND SACRAMENT
Whether you are looking for an icon for your home or a design scheme for your church, a painted crucifix or a stone altar, a mosaic apse or a carved reliquary, I bring experience from a wide variety of projects in the UK and internationally. I work in egg tempera and gilding, wood and stone carving, mosaics and murals, and can also prepare designs for other artists. Whether large or small, each work is inspired by the lives of the saints, the Word of God, and the sacramental presence of Christ in the liturgy.
Apse mural detail, Priests' chapel, Wisconsin, USA. Painted by Martin Earle and Baker Galloway.
Pantocrator mosaic, glass and stone tesserae, 130 x 100cm.
