Wood Carvings

These pieces are carved from wild wood — timber from trees found in nature. Each piece is unique, and some require hundreds of hours of work before they are carved into their final form.

SEE ALL

Four collections, four ways of looking. Lemesos Old Town — doors, balconies and building fronts drawn from real life in black pen ink. Abstract — works on canvas, where colour, mark and surface follow the mood of the day and the turn of the season. Faces — the same features returning, now plainly drawn, now nearly dissolved. Miscellaneous — pictures made in passing, between the larger series.
