WALL STORIES

A large section of my work can now be found at ART at the CROSS a fabulous gallery in Chester, Cheshire. Why not pay a visit. The gallery is located at 6-8 Watergate Street close to Chester Cross and is open 7 days a week and I am on hand several days of the week. My collection is housed on the top floor in a beautiful relaxed space, you will love it…I promise.
Art & Design Come Together.
As well and printing and framing my work I love to design and create unusual products. Be it printing my photographs onto wood or my unique guitar hanging system, my home is full of it. I also love to upcycle furniture which involves applying a printed photograph to the surface of the structure allowing the natural grain of the wood to reveal itself.
Unique & Beautiful Guitar Frames
Guitars are like works of art and perhaps that is why we hang them on the wall. We simply love to look at them, plus they make a beautiful feature in our homes. However, when the guitar is removed from the hanger you are left with a blank wall - which isn’t very inspiring. With this in mind I created my unique guitar hanging system which leaves a beautiful piece of art on the wall when the guitar is in use.
I am always adding new designs as my guitar collection expands! All the designs are available to purchase and I also offer customisation to allow you to add a personal touch.

From concept comes beauty
The journey of the framed guitar hanging system began with a stunning piece of contemporary art and the desire to display my beautiful guitars. A priority was to ensure both the artwork and the hanger were strong enough to manage the weight. Everything came together beautifully to create a unique design which simply looks stunning with or without the guitar in place.
The Golden Ticket
The Golden Ticket features reproduction concert tickets from iconic acts and venues from around the world. It has an amazing tactile vintage vibe and is a unique conversation piece. The tickets sit on a solid composite wooden board which incorporates a copper guitar hanger. It is surrounded by a complimentary black wooden float frame which allows the artwork really sing.

The ROCK’N’ROLLA
I rescued a collection of piano keys to create this unique piece - it proved to be quite a task. Dismantling the donor piano and sanding years of dust and dirt away takes patience and a lot of time. The keys are then waxed and mounted onto an oak board, taking care to position the keys in the correct order. The rescued keys have now become a wonderful conversation piece in my home.
The LONDON LOOK
This repurposed antique cabinet pays homage to two 60’s icons. I decided to give the cabinet a unique retro look by transferring the iconic black and white photographs to each door. It took a considerable amount of effort but it was worth it as it is now a complete one of a kind. The method used to apply the prints allows the grain of the wood to show through the photographs and looks spectacular.
I design and create for my home, but if you are interested in any of my work please contact me and perhaps I can create something for your home.
Designing and making interesting and decorative items has always been a big passion of mine. As a child I would watch my dad create all kinds of things from furniture to clay models. I suppose I get it from him, so thanks Dad. As well as being an extremely jolly thing to do, I get to fill my home with unique items. And I love to have visitors who get to see my work and make such wonderful compliments.
I would love to hear your comments and should you be interested in ordering any items please get in touch. Whatever you order will be lovingly created by yours truly.
