Christmas decorations

Woody Saturday

another busy one at the workshop planing up oak and elm.....results to follow

And most exciting of all....

New look interior

Trees I. Solid oak panels

Beach huts

The secret cupboards

Close up trawling

The new look hut

the huge table

this was a bit of a monster . 2m x 2m square with a 3 inch top for some friends in Ireland.

Aldeburgh sunset

Thursday night BBQ on the beach next to maggie's shell!

Seed heads

A two panel piece in oak with acrylic paint.

Tram bench

I recently found these amazing bench ends with a gothic feel. I have added new oak and it looks pretty nice. The mechanism means you can face one way or the other. Perfect on a tram .

Stormy seas at southwold

These were at the Buckingham Gallery in Southwold. Great pictures

Seed heads

Just by way of a change. Some nice seedy,grassy pictures.

Beach Hut News

Another revamp of the hut and I have gone a bit minimal. Out go all the old bits and bobs and with summer here it is time to make some new pieces. Here's just a taster of a few new things in photo form!

Trees

I seem to have become obsessed with trees! Especially ones blowing in the wind

Huge table

Again a large piece of furniture . This is a board room table for a design company . Made from European oak it measures 3m x 1.8m and was a bugger to carry up three flights of stairs ! 

Oak hut

By way of a change from the furniture and pictures I have been making something a little bigger in scale. It is an entrance hut for a school in North London. It is oak framed and will have its sedum roof added quite soon. It also weighs about 3 tons.

T shirt weather....at last

And the pink cottage needs a lick of paint.

Southwold in a box / Boat in box

I have just made a few of these. Oak, acrylic etc in a wooden box with glass front.

The little boats in boxes are quite nice too

Tryptichs

Here are two.....made up of 3 hinged oak panels.

A few pics from this morning. 5th April. Sun at last.

A little wind blown tree

Final piece

So here it is after a coat of lacquer ready to hang........ Another slab of elm is waiting for the treatment. You can buy it in the hut for £395.

Here's how I make these pictures.

Sadly I am not a great artist but I do love scalpels which is worrying and a health hazard.
I tape over a huge slab of wood, then I cut out the sections,with a scalpel,where I want paint to appear. This can I take a long time. Once done I apply the paint and leave to dry and then comes the rewarding bit of peeling everything off.
