The FreeForm^tm modelling system fuses  creative and intuitive workflow with digital productivity. By working exclusively with the innovative FreeForm^tm modelling system since its launch in 1999 I have acquired extensive experience of this new emerging technology as a sculptor, a commercial 3D modeller, a FreeForm^tm trainer and demonstrator as well as a teacher and university lecturer.

I have collaborated on a variety of research projects from sculpture conservation to industrial design and can therefore offer a unique insight into the best way to become productive. You can see examples of my work with FreeForm^tm which includes sculpture, industrial design, conservation research, ceramics, jewellery, animation, novelty and more.

I have produced work for companies such as Roll Royce Motors, Bridgewater Pottery, Royal Doulton, National Museums Liverpool as well as collaborations with Amanda Barnes, West Dean Conservation Centre and Mark Evans from Loughborough University to mention a few.

I am at present engaged as Product Development Consultant with the National Museums Liverpool Sculpture Conservation Department,  where I will be looking at ways to develop traditional conservation techniques and laser recording, through the use of digital technologies such as FreeForm^tm. I will be developing new processes and products for conservation, replication and educational use.
