Largely self-taught as a sculptor, he began working full time in 1996 and has since built a practice rooted in close, first-hand observation of animals in the wild, travelling to Antarctica, Africa, India, and Australia to study his subjects. Working in clay with fluid, often unrepeatable gestures, his bronzes are cast using the lost wax method as limited editions in bronze, stainless steel, and silver. In 2014 he won the Goodman's Fields public commission in the City of London, unveiled in 2015 and awarded the Marsh Award for Excellence in Public Sculpture the following year. His sixth solo show, Life in Bronze, was held at Mall Galleries in London in 2016. He is based in Oxfordshire.
