Cactus...

Sometimes I get to make interesting pieces like this birthday cactus!
Bespoke pieces are great to make as I get the chance to work with clients who mostly are pretty care free and trusting... I really like the fact that they give me an idea then they let me run with it!

My client and her husband love Mexico so she wanted to celebrate his birthday with something fitting. We discussed having an option where I'd work on hyper realism but making a soft sculpture is much more interesting then just producing something which looks too real. In that case you'd probably be better off buying a real cactus. Luckily my client is an art loving person so she was really pleased with the idea and went for it. I really love sculpture and this bespoke piece is an extension of my monsters... ah yes, those little beasties... I really must get back to them and create a bit more vegetation for them. A cactus forest might be worth exploring!





If you'd like a bespoke soft sculpture then get in touch... I'm really looking forward to creating more made to measure sculptures so yes, drop me a line!
