"Pygmalion once carved an image so true it came to life...well, we sculptors can dream, can't we?"



The Nigelangel Studio Gallery

Kritsa is a large attractive village in Crete which combines a love for its traditions with a modern outgoing outlook. During the summer months it is visited by numerous day-trippers. I have a studio/gallery here where I produce various small art works for sale, usually in editions from 6-24 pieces. The aim is to keep my sculpture rare but affordable. I particularly enjoy working in pewter. Because of its low melting point, casting can be done in my workshop. For larger pieces I tend to use Bronze Resin, which possesses much of the attractiveness of Bronze but is far less heavy (an importante concern for air travellers). It is also far less expensive. I also accept commissions for relief sketch portraits, usually working from photographs. These can, of course, always be emailed to me.

Cretans have impeccable taste and for some reason don't seem terribly keen on saying 'Nigel.' They prefer to call me 'Angelos'...it seemed as good a name as any.
