Emissary

With the words of a Juluka song in mind…..”and who will be an emissary to speak to the seasons, for the blackbirds and crows already soak up the sky”

We stand at the gate, our emissaries sent. The citadel shut to reason ..Occupied by the distracted in guilded entitlement, ..while around us all, the storm brews.

A small sculpture in sand cast bronze.
Approximately 190mm High x 190mm Long x 130mm Deep

Forged, fabricated and sand-cast sterling silver

Here is a brooch to take with you to the grave, all you Viking and Celtic souls!

A follow through on a variation I wanted to do make on The Briarwood Brooch.

Sand-cast in Sterling Silver (75g)

Thought it was about time I got my head around this website and uploaded a few examples of my work 😀

1. This is the house that Jack built.
2. This is the malt
   That lay in the house that Jack built.
3. This is the rat,
   That ate the malt
   That lay in the house that Jack built.
5. YOU get the Gist! Skip to the last verse!
7. This is the farmer sowing his corn,
   That kept the cock that crow’d in the morn,
   That waked the priest all shaven and shorn,
   That married the man all tatter’d and torn,
   That kissed the maiden all forlorn,
   That milk’d the cow with the crumpled horn,
   That tossed the dog,
   That worried the cat,
   That killed the rat,
   That ate the malt
   That lay in the house that Jack built.

The Sculpture is about “Run-away House Prices” …and the conflict between Need and Greed.

Sterling silver Two bob pieces from around 1914 to 1932 (these ones) They’r the perfect size for small castings (Greensand casting)… I generally use about five in the small crucible…

Here I’ve cast a few small pieces for a necklace.
