Animals has been my passion since before I can remember; dogs has been a part of my life since I was 9 years old and owned my first fox terrier. When I was 11 got my first Giant Schnauzer and when I was 15 I got involved in dog showing and breeding; ever since I steeped my first dog show I never stopped. I’m passionate about dog breeds, their history and direct link to functionality. I love to understand why they are built in such a way and I love to study and observe dog breeds. I found a way to apply that interest to something really handy, now I love to create them in clay, this brings a lot of joy to me and to the new owners of the pieces I create, and that, believe me, is a GREAT satisfaction!
My sculptures are one-off pieces made of stoneware which I fire twice up to 1300*C for the glazing. The process, since the sculpture it’s started, may take up to several weeks, depending on the size of the piece and complexity of the details both in the sculpture and in the coloring process. As each subject is individual, the details required and sizing varies and I ensure that every piece is as personal and unique as possible.
If you are interested in commissioning me for a art piece, I am more than happy to give you a more accurate price and guidance about what can be possible once I see the subject which is to be sculptured and hear your ideas. I can fit all budgets with high quality works!
