These wiggly heads are all about fun and self-validation. I do lots of fun quotes and these make unusual but great gifts for all ages and tastes
Chinese ‘love’ and ‘year of the monkey’
My birth year is the year of the monkey, hence why Adam calls me his ‘cheeky chimp’, and the other symbol speaks for itself. These are just a couple of examples of what i offer, as any symbol [even arabic] is within my ability
Dirty Devil
This is another of my wiggly head fun quotes, usually favoured by those of a more religious disposition
Celtic Hounds
Like many, i adore Celtic Art, so i adapted it to suit myself. The clocks are something i enjoy doing immensely, and i rarely repeat a design, so clients end up with something unique and tasteful, with the knowledge that no one else has one
Celestial Sun
For those of you who know anything about the ancient Celts, you’ll know they were obsessed with the sun, as indicated in many pieces of Celtic Art. The sun was a symbol of life, fertility and growth to the Celts, and they spent much of their time focussing on the cycle of the sun [although we now know that it is the earth which revolves around the sun and not vice-versa], and the seasonal fruits its presence bore-hence why we have the Celtic sun-wheel motifs
Bloddeuwedd
This is the Celtic goddess Bloddeuwedd. The ancient Celts revered nature; that is why all of their deities are the embodiment of every aspect of nature. Essentially, their gods are tangible; [i.e. Teutates is the water, hence why warriors on the Gundestrup Cauldron were depicted being dunked head first into water]. In this instance, Bloddeuwedd is the very essence of the 9 Primroses, the moon and her totem animal is the owl
Aries
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and the meaning is ‘I am’. I’m not sure if this has something to do with the Old Testament Christian god who categorically states that he is the first and the last, and that he is the great ‘I am’. Coincidental as it may be, this is merely an example of my zodiac plaques. The pictures can be adapted to suit taste
Book of the Dead, and the Eye of Horus
The main piece with the hieroglyphics has been taken from the Egyptian ‘Book of the Dead’, in which Anubis [the jackal-headed god] guides the deceased on his journey into the after-life. First the person is judged by those depicted at the top. The glyphs on the right tell the story of how the dead man has lived his life. This will dictate on what kind of after-life he has. The eye of Horus on the trinket box indicates that the eagle-headed god Horus is watching over the owner. Again, like all my work, it can be adapted to auit individual taste, making each one unique
Robertson Clan Crest
The clan motto reads ‘Virtutis Gloria Merces’ which means, ‘Glory Rewards Valour’. I design these according to whatsoever clan is desired, and as they are all hand done it is very easy for me to personalise them
Celtic Horse
This Celtic Horse spoon is one of many designs i do on just about anything made of wood
