About

I make detailed scale models, miniature scenes and dioramas. I started model making as a kid in the 1980’s and it’s been my life-long fascination to recreate disappearing and lost subjects in miniature. I find that miniatures can give people feelings of wonder and comfort by encouraging creative play, storytelling and remembrance.

I grew up in Stoke on Trent, a post-industrial British town that was surrounded by landscapes of wrecked machinery and factories, so as a kid I was immersed in a world of loss and change. My creative focus is on abandonment, although I make models of all types and eras, both real-life and fantasy subjects.
