Creating a Commission
Every commission begins with a conversation.
Whether you already know exactly what you would like, or simply have an idea, I work with you to create something personal.
Every flower is individually designed, cut, shaped, welded and painted by hand in my North Yorkshire workshop.
Nothing is mass-produced and no two pieces are ever exactly the same.
Below is the journey of one commission, showing how a sheet of steel is transformed into a finished piece that will be enjoyed for many years to come.

Layers of colour are applied by hand to create depth, warmth and a realistic finish.
