Monkey Puppet
I thoroughly enjoyed crafting this puppet, not only because it was the first monkey puppet, I'd ever made but also because it was intended for a charitable performance. The customer wanted it to closely resemble the monkey from the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie. I embraced the challenge and fulfilled her wish.
A Nameless Puppet
This puppet was designed upon the request of a Korean student studying in Moscow, who needed a puppet for a traditional Korean costume performance. The unique requirement was that the puppet's eyes had to move up, down, and sideways.
Marionettes Based on Movie Characters
These puppets were created upon the request of a customer from the United States, representing characters from his favorite movies. He displays them proudly in his studio, and our collaboration has grown into a lasting friendship. This is one of the rewarding aspects of my job—puppets aren't mere nameless items but unique creations with personal connections to their owners.
Puppets for a Private Theatre
These stunning puppets, which include a fish, seahorse, octopus, and shark, emerged from a creative collaboration between myself and my friend Adam. Adam's expertise in design and carving brought each puppet to life with meticulous attention to detail, capturing the essence of each sea creature through his artistic vision.
My role in this project was to paint the puppets carefully, ensuring that their vibrant colors and intricate patterns accurately reflected the beauty and mystery of the ocean. Through this collaboration, we were able to combine our skills to create puppets that are both visually striking and faithful to the wonders of the underwater world.

Marionettes Based on Book Characters
Say hello to Caden. He comes from a world called Dunari, a world so far away it is only
accessible through an interdimensional gateway.
Caden is over seven thousand years ago. Or rather his ‘spirit’ is that old.
When he was alive, Caden was human. He lived in a kingdom called The Kingdom of Wood. At that time, Dunari consisted of sixteen separate kingdoms. Each of these kingdoms specialised in a different skill set. The Kingdom of Iron specialised in mining and producing metal goods. The Kingdom of Gems produced high quality jewellery. And so on . . .
The Kingdom of Wood specialised in using timber to produce all types of furniture, building materials, and wooden machines that could be powered with magic spells.
Caden was a carpenter. His greatest ambition was to earn enough money to buy land, plant his own forest, and create high quality furniture from his timber. In Caden’s society, owning a forest would greatly increase his status and help him to attract the attention of a suitable wife.
He longed to have a loving family.
All sixteen kingdoms lived in harmony with each other and the natural environment. Until . . . human invaders appeared on the horizon. The sixteen kingdoms went to war, and Caden was forced to join the Kingdom of Wood’s army.
Although the sixteen kingdoms had numbers on their side, the invaders had brought powerful magic weapons with them. Using one of these bombs, they destroyed the sixteen kingdom’s army. The spirits of countless dead soldiers merged with the post detonation bomb energy and rose into the air as a violent storm.
This became known as a Spirit Storm.
Within this Spirit Storm, the spirits swirled about, existing in a state of confusion where they didn’t know what they were or where they were. Finally, after raging uncontrollably for two thousand years, the Spirit Storm began to settle. This enabled the spirits to become aware of their surroundings and circumstances.
They were not happy about it.
They wanted out of the storm. And they wanted revenge. They assumed that any living humans that now inhabited Dunari were descended from the humans that had caused the war.
The spirits learned how to manipulate the storm’s energy. And when the Kingdom of Wood’s spirits remembered their old ways with timber, they learned how scoop forests up into the storm, make humanlike puppets from the timber, and then inhabit these puppets with their own spirits. This enabled them to use the puppets to leave the storm and rejoin the physical world in a unique way. So, the sixteen kingdom’s army became an army of spirit powered puppets.
Caden is one of these puppets.
But even if Caden had grown bitter and resentful through the millennia, he still has enough humanity to know it is wrong to punish anyone for something their distant ancestors did. So, in his new puppet form, he has now left the puppet army and ventured off into the world to try to find his new place within it.
