This diver was a commission by a private client for their garden, where she is now installed poised and ready to dive in to the pond.
This was a lovely project to work on, helping realise Claire’s dreams for a tailored sculpture for her husband’s birthday. She knew they wanted a sculpture in action by their pond and when she discovered my work online, knew that my style was the right one for them. I hope they enjoy the work for years to come.
Claire wrote to me at the end to say:

“We really enjoyed being involved in and following the emergence of our bespoke sculpture. Emma was pleasant and very easy to deal with. She visited our garden with a life-size drawing to give us an idea of how the finished work would fit in our chosen position, and she came to install the completed sculpture.  My husband is very pleased, as am I, with the finished result; now named ‘Daphne’, a Naiad (water nymph), we are so happy with her “
