During my beachcombing forays, I collect a wide range of items. Often, I don’t know how they will be used but they are all “filed” in boxes according to type. When inspiriation strikes, they are combined together either as they are, combined with a “made” item, or framed.

Framed Assemblages

Some work is framed and glazed but some is left open so that the viewer can get up close to the contents. Texture is very important in my work and the lack of glass can enable a more detailed inspection of the frame contents. All frames are bespoke, made to fit the contents in size, form, and colour.

“Negligence” is an eight piece group of Assemblage works suitable for display in a home, office or commercial setting. This collection can be bought together – price on application. Alternatively, I will sell individual pieces and details are given below. As with all of my work, every piece is unique and cannot be replicated.
