MY FRIEND NIGEL 'ANGELO' OF KRITSA
OK, we haven't been friends long but we hit it off straight away. This is Nigel the sculptor who has his workshop in Kritsa. Gillian, my cello teacher introduced me to him and together with John, her husband, David and I were treated to a tour of his shop and an explanation of 'work in progress'. The horse's head that Nigel is working on at the moment is a commissioned work made from a block the very best marble but it is in good hands. Nigel's work has won several awards not least this year's Touch Festival in Agios Nikolaos. Below is a selection of his best pieces. The last picture on this page shows Nigel's other 'work in progress' which is number 10 of the 'Stations of the Cross' which has been commissioned by the Abbot of a Monastery in the south of England.
