I have spent this year working on an exciting commission for Wakehurst Place, one of Kew's Botanic Gardens in West Sussex. A joint project, Richard has created the metalwork, and onto this I weave the willow. I have used some willows grown here at Biteabout, some red from West Newton and some stripped white willow from Musgrove Willow Growers, Somerset. Altogether we've made 9 sculptures; two stoats, a fox, a rabbit, a robin, a woodpecker, a barn owl, a tawny owl and a red kite. They form part of a bespoke willow sculpture trail through Pearcelands Wood. I do hope you get to see them!
