Mike Chapman

Mike Chapman is a gifted stone and wood sculptor quite local to me in Dorset. A stone's throw from Hardy's birth place! ("A sort of pun" for you Erik).

Look at the stone caved rings on the "detail" in the last picture!

See one of his beautiful works in London here: http://dorsetsculpture.blogspot.com/2006/11/dorset-stone-sculptor-mike-chapman.html

Mike runs a Summer School, dates for this year are Monday 23 July and 6 August. email mike@mikechapman.plus.com for details. Very good value instruction! He's not charging enough!

Chris Miller

Chris Millers Studio

Well Mr. Miller, I am most impressed there is clearly great industry here and oh so tidy! When I eventually dare to show mine you will see just why I say that! Now if I was cruel I would ask you to turn the camera round to see what is behind you!

The girl in pink on the wall on the left looks interesting, do you have another better picture?

I look forward very much to seeing your Father’s in due course and I think we should do it annually. This gives us plenty of incentive to show new work in progress and like a Major General’s inspection ensure the broom and vacuum cleaners get used, which is not often enough in my case.

Taft's studio

I was impressed with Taft's studio, we share the same sort of desk. It was this picture that gave me the idea. Other Sculptor's and Artist's studios really interest me. I hope living ones will send their pictures to me. If it is a sucess then I will try and get Composers and Writers studies too.
