Enjoy a holiday in a beautiful
part of Herefordshire, learning the skills of working unseasoned
timber with handtools to create something unique for your own
home or garden.
I offer two to nine day
courses in Green
Woodwork and Chairmaking for
novices, amateurs and experienced craftspeople.
I
teach the whole range of greenwood crafts; from pole lathe
turned windsor chairs, ladder back chairs with varied seating,
contemporary and free form sculptural pieces to an ever
expanding range of
other projects.
A gift voucher for
a course can make a very welcome Christmas, Birthday or
Retirement present. Gift vouchers can be arranged for any
amount. Email for more information.
Introductory course July 2009
I
have been fortunate to source some very wide elm boards in Herefordshire
for course use in Windsor and Welsh stick chair making.
This is a very rare and unusual
find - the boards are superb.
In addition I make a unique range of sculptural free-form
furniture
to commission.
EXHIBITIONS
I was
absolutely delighted to exhibit again
at the Hereford Contemporary Craft Fair in November 2009.
This is a very high quality craft
fair around a wide range of
disciplines.
This was my 9th consecutive year exhibiting. Visitors
comment repeatedly that it is "as good as 'Origin' and better
than 'Chelsea'."
