“When love beckons to you – follow!“

Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet – 1923

As a young child, my parents took me to the Tate Gallery, in London and I was inspired by Rodin’s wonderful marble of The Kiss.

Originally, I had the work cast in bronze by the Burleighfield Foundry, in Beaconsfield and following their demise, now cast with other excellent UK foundries. I will be enlarging this work for display in public places, parks and gardens and I also make a very small edition which is available in both bronze and white plaster mounded on a black resin base.
