Wood Sculpture

All my work is hand carved with a chisel finish. I only use materials from sustainable sources and mostly wood that is from native species. Presented here are examples of past work. I can create sculpture for any indoor or outdoor space. Carved pieces can be scaled to other sizes to fit the requirements of a given space.

I am available for commissions after any current works that have already been given priority.

Portrait Sculpture

Enquire to commission a portrait sculpture of yourself, a loved one, or a distinguished person you admire in wood, stone, bronze, or plaster.

Captain Moroni

I was asked to create a sculpture depicting Captain Moroni - a Mormon saint. This required a great deal of research and discussion to get the depiction the client wanted. As the client wanted a wood with a visible grain and and it needed to be a stable hard wood to withstand the change of environment in California, I chose yew wood for the carving. It was carved from one log that had to be well-seasoned. Height is approximately 25cm

The photography on Sarah's portfolio is stunning! Each piece tells a story and evokes emotion. Her talk at the the Chelsea Arts Club on her trip to Colombia was full of information that only a traveller who has gained a great depth to her insights would be able to describe.
