Hull is a good city to live and work in. People in the art scene are working hard to generate an improved perception of the city, its history and people.
I settled here five years ago after getting regular work with Creative Partnerships, a scheme which engaged artists to collaborate in schools to inspire teachers to be creative in their lessons.
The scheme has finished now but my freelance work is the same. I still try to create opportunities for learning and the development of creative skills.
I make processional sculpture, Little Giants, mostly to make people smile.
In 2014 I have collaborated with Dom Heffer, Amanda Lowe, Carol Walker, Anita Anita, Creative & Cultural Company, Judy’s Attic and Kingston Artgroup.
Steve is pictured here working on a giant Jack Frost a joint commission with Amanda Lowe and the Creative and Cultural Company – you can see the finished processional sculpture at Princes Quay until the end of January 2015.
