The Shires...what happens next?
The word 'shire' referred to an administrative region about one fiftieth of the total area of Britain and most of our counties today retain it as part of their name. David Winter has taken twelve views from life in 'The Shires' and recreated them with his usual fine detail. The range is further enhanced by Andrew Stadden's metal figurines which help to give the pieces a recurring theme. From the young rapscallion about to cause havoc with his catapult to the bull being taunted by a naughty boy, each piece posed the same question: What happens next?

The answer -- as David Winter himself wishes -- is for the collector to decide.

Buckinghamshire Bull Pen
A small boy who taunts a massive and powerful bull in its pen is asking for trouble, particularly if he's got his foot caught in the railing. Will the bull be able to exact his revenge?
