Made to scale from salvaged scrap metals, 'Cruising the ocean' was created at the request of my daughter who has a love of turtles.

Judge's Comments MIFGS 2023

First prize goes to this magnificent turtle. I love the up-cycled/re-cycled objects meticulously joined together.  Again i think this is another one of those contemporary pieces which reflect the current trend to re-use objects.  You could spend a long time looking at all the internal objects which work together to constitute this work.
