If you show kids simple, achievable sculpture ideas, they will amaze you with what they create. Squirrel Class (Year 3 & 4) from North Newton Primary created these sculptures in just one morning. Look at the movement in them. 😮

How do I work stuff out? Usually by drawing still, playing around with shapes. This cute hedgehog will come to life tomorrow, with the help of some new little friends. 😁👍

I've spent an exciting couple of days at Polden Bower Special School in Somerset helping the students to create this Disability Pride banner. 🤩
They understand how important both perseverance and teamwork are. 👍

I get messages like this every week now, this one is from Instagram. Henry has taken ideas from 'Art Shaped' and used them to create his own Whale Shark. This is his own project. 😁
It's heart warming to see my book inspiring children and encouraging them to be innovative. 👍

I've been adding some recent ideas onto the website. 👍
Lots of the projects I share on social media find their way here, and it allows me to show different stages, and to talk about how things work in greater detail. 🙂

I love a challenge . . . and these little 'Tube Houses' are a great way of experimenting with what I call 'pure making' . . . can you create a house from just one tube, leaving no waste?
The full making video is on my YouTube channel. 😁👍

Thanks to those lovely people that took time to post a review or rating, it only takes a minute but it makes a big difference to how people view a book, especially if they are new to your work. The monkey is chuffed too. 😁

Today I’ve had a busy day with the Year 7 kids at Beechwood Park School They are lucky to be surrounded by some beautiful architecture, and so we took that as our inspiration.

I’ve been busy creating sea creatures today with the Year 5 students from Beechwood Park School. This afternoon we made this large octopus sculpture as one whole team! 😮 They’ve shown great skill and collaboration.
