Letters from the Studio | August

A little look behind the studio doors.

This month: a completed commission of Nelson Mandela and Jan Smuts, a new Humpback Whale inspired by Hermanus’ whale season, and a first glimpse at something new we’ve been developing for your home.

UNITE

An everlasting foundation bound together in unity, grounded in strength, encouragement, and shared purpose.

This sculpture is inspired by the biblical idea of believers encouraging one another in this life, as we look toward the everlasting Kingdom and new creation God has promised.

Unite. Available to collect.

There is beauty in every mark, every texture, every carefully sculpted surface.

Delicate Beauty captures the delicate balance between softness and strength, revealing that beauty is often found not in perfection, but in character, depth, and the stories we carry.

Look closer.

What first appears as colour becomes texture.
What seems like texture becomes intention.

Sometimes, seeing is simply a matter of slowing down.

Not every witness speaks

Some simply just observe,bearing the marks of time, truth, and grace

A timeless witness.

I probably spend more time looking at a sculpture than actually sculpting it.

There comes a point where you stop adding clay and simply observe. You walk around it. Study it from every angle.

More often than not, that's where the next decision comes from.

This is the beauty of sculpting.

There is only light, shadow, and the pursuit of something that carries meaning.

Every sculpture begins as an idea, shaped by hand, and refined through countless hours being and living with the sculptures in the studio until it becomes a timeless work of art.

Expressions of Self

No two people are the same.

Each of us carries our own story, experiences, strengths, and imperfections. Yet it is often these very differences that have the power to bring us together.

Expressions of Self is a reflection on unity in diversity. Each face represents an individual story, but together they form something far greater than any one piece alone. It is a reminder that beauty is not found in uniformity, but in the richness of our shared humanity.

Our differences don’t divide us. They complete the story.

Every sculpture begins with a gift from the Creator.

I’m grateful to use the hands He’s given me to create works that inspire reflection, wonder, and beauty.

Thank you for being part of the journey.
