Belle ~ french for 'beautiful'
“Belle” sits quietly in her own world, lost in the moment of a wonderful story in the perfect setting within nature. Capturing the contemplative moment a bird greets her ~ quiet and still.
She sits nestled and cocooned ready for you to join her.
- an enthralling book to escape into.
- a bird in nature, which appears & delights us for one brief moment.
- a sun dress that reminds you of family summer holidays.
- daisy flowers that adorn her dress full of brightness and hope in ever petal.
This original sculpture is created with deep emotion and reflection to seek out and capture the joy of the little moments in our life that delight us in a way that is both enchanting and meaningful.
I love the comfort & joy ‘Belle’ brings.

Foundry Bronze – Foundry Bronze metal is a copper and tin alloy that is shaped using the traditional method of bronze casting, using the lost wax process – used by sculptors in ancient Greece.
The bronze is melted at extremely high temperatures and then poured into a ceramic mould.
The lost wax method of casting is a highly skilled, complex, time-consuming and labour intensive process. .
The skill required in the casting, combined with the innate value of the bronze (which is made from copper and tin), gives rise to the comparatively high price of a bronze sculpture.
