Some of my recent works installed at the Botanical Gardens in Singleton Park, Swansea......

My latest piece... with handmade copper sails for the ships...

I'm very much enjoying doing my tree carvings at the moment, where I am carving tree stumps and trees that have been trimmed by the tree surgeons to my specifications and here are some examples.....

There’s not mush room in my shed anymore! #mushrooms #mushroomcarvings #notmushroom #woodcarving #woodsculpture #woodsculptorwales #simonhedger #fairyring

This is my abstract sculpture finished. Carved from Douglas fir.... this type of wood works as it is going to be an indoor piece.

My latest white rabbit completed and carved in cedar.

Commissioned to carve a Eucalyptus tree in The Botanical Gardens of Swansea. This is in Singleton Park and the gardens are a treasure waiting to be explored. In this tree I have hidden ten native animals in the flora and fauna of nature. https://www.facebook.com/Friends-of-City-of-Swansea-Botanical-Gardens-627050383987055/

Carved from Giant Leylandii, this is a sculpture for a church in Liverpool.. a circle of hands releasing a white dove. I've included four photographs here to show the process. The smell of the tree was divine and anybody who came near my workshop commented on this!
