He is self-trained and started to experiment with wood in 1994. He has exhibited in Ireland and France aswell as participating in several Cyber exhibitions on the Internet.
Wood is an extremely polyvalent material.
Each wood has its own characteristics, from the heavy density of ebony and other 'exotics' to the fine suppleness of lime and other fruitwoods. Therefore each type of wood contains its own idiosyncracies which 'play' an important role in the sculpture, from the conception through to the end result. Even after a piece is completed, the wood continues to work. It breathes and eventually darkens and of course it will eventually rot. All of these aspects are reflected in the sculptures that I do.
