about me

I am a qualified and experienced professional banker mason
or architectural stone carver as I like to describe the ancient discipline of carving masonry, having earned my NVQ Level 2 at the City of Bath College, England, where I worked as a banker mason in the villages nearby for a period of three years beginning in January 2000

For the past 17 years I have lived and worked in the Roaring Fork Valley in and around Woody Creek and Aspen, Colorado, with my wife Kris and son Joseph. I specialize in carving our local, beautiful and unrivaled Colorado Yule Marble into the revolutionary light and portable sculpture that I have named Curvilinear.

I was born in Preston, Lancashire, in the North West of England, where I enjoyed a rather happy childhood within a loving family in a part of the world that I absolutely loved to bits.

Such was the compact nature of the land that within a 50 miles radius I had everything a boy growing up in England could possibly desire. To the north I had access to the famous Lake District mountains on whose steep sides I was to clamber at will, and to the East lay the wild and wonderful Pennine moors on whose gently rounded hills I could ramble mile upon mile with a bold stride and relative ease.  To the west I had the entire Irish Sea coastline to explore from just short of the Scottish border all the way down and into Wales. And to the south, just 30 miles or so in either direction, lay the iconic cities of Liverpool and Manchester beckoning me with their offer of top flight football matches, concerts and huge department stores.
