Simon Archer Sculptor

I commissioned a carving for my wife's birthday and she was really happy. I gave Simon a rather loose brief and he was keen to take on the challenge. Very easy guy to deal with and super talented. If you're looking for a surprise with a real wow factor and/or a unique piece for your outside space, give him a shout.

I wished to remove an over-large leylandii tree from my garden but wanted to do something interesting with the wood. Liking the sculptural work of BARBARA HEPWORTH, I asked Simon if he could use the leylandii trunk as the base material to re-interpret one of her pieces. I am delighted to say he did just that and his work is exceptional - see attached.

Thanks Simon for our Tawny Owl. Absolutely delighted with your work. Your suggestions on the pose and finish were absolutely spot on. You have an amazing talent and it was a pleasure to watch you at work creating our garden art. The response and feedback from friends and family on seeing the tawny has been incredible. Thanks again P

I asked Simon to visit my mum's garden and create something from an old beech tree. He really helped us to clarify what we wanted, thought carefully about some of our madder suggestions and found a way to make it all happen. He worked so hard to get it just perfect and we couldn't be more delighted. Highly recommend Simon. We can't stop smiling every time we look at the sculpture.

Wow! Simon is amazingly talented and we are thrilled with our carving of a dragon. Simon worked all day in the soaring heat but he wouodnt finish until it was complete. Thank you Simon
