Inspired By A Lifetime On The Coast. Made Permanent In Resin.
The Hidden Reef Clock
At 1.2 metres in diameter, The Hidden Reef Clock is a large-scale coastal statement piece inspired by the unseen beauty of reef systems beneath calm tropical waters. This work explores the contrast between what is visible at the surface and the complex, living structures hidden below — where colour, texture, and movement exist just beneath the stillness of the sea.
Layers of resin build a deep, immersive seascape, shifting from tranquil surface tones into richer, more intricate depths that suggest coral formations and submerged reef systems. Within these layers, the subtle form of a basking shark can be seen gliding through the depths, a quiet presence moving beneath the structure of the reef.
Light interacts with the surface in subtle and unexpected ways, revealing new detail as the viewer moves around the piece, echoing the way underwater landscapes shift and transform with changing light and tide.
Designed as both a functional clock and a sculptural artwork, the circular form reinforces the natural rhythm of time and ocean movement, drawing the viewer into a continuous visual flow.
Handcrafted by North Norfolk artist Luis, whose lifelong connection to the sea has been shaped by decades working as a lifeguard, this one-of-one artwork reflects a deep understanding of coastal environments — both seen and unseen.
As a unique original artwork, this piece is carefully packaged by hand in a bespoke wooden crate crafted by Luis himself. Delivery is available throughout the UK, with shipping confirmed prior to purchase based on size and destination. Enquire today to secure this original statement piece for your collection.
A little piece of the coastline, inspired by the beauty left behind after the tide.
There's something fascinating about the changing colours and textures of the shoreline after a rough tide. As the waves retreat, they leave behind a mixture of seaweed, algae, shells and natural treasures, each adding its own character to the sand. Sandy Cove Clock takes inspiration from these little details that make every visit to the coast different.
Using a combination of vibrant turquoise and soft ocean-blue resin, I've recreated the movement of water flowing around a sheltered sandy cove. Warm copper and earthy tones capture the colours of seaweed and algae drifting through the shallows, while delicate white seafoam brings the scene to life.
The textured sandy shores are scattered with coastal details, from tiny shells and pebbles to patches of green resembling the plant life found along the water's edge. At the centre, a subtle gold clock face with elegant black hands brings the artwork together, combining a practical timepiece with the natural beauty of the coast.
Full of colour, texture and little details to discover, Sandy Cove Clock is a reminder that some of the most beautiful things along the shoreline are those left behind by the sea. Perhaps it could bring a little of that coastal character into your home.

Inspired by the beautiful shores of Holkham Beach, North Norfolk.
There’s something truly special about Holkham Beach in the summertime. The miles of soft golden sand, windswept coastal plants and beautiful blue waters create a landscape that feels both peaceful and full of life. Summer Ocean Bay is my attempt to capture a little of that magic.
Having spent countless hours on these beaches, whether enjoying days out with family or catching waves with friends, this coastline holds a special place in my heart. I wanted to create a piece that reflects those memories and the ever-changing beauty of the Norfolk coast.
Using layers of ocean-blue and turquoise resin, I've recreated the movement of waves gently rolling towards the shoreline, with delicate white seafoam adding depth and texture. The sandy beach and small clusters of windswept greenery bring a natural contrast to the vibrant waters, capturing that familiar meeting point between land and sea.
The result is a coastal artwork that brings together the colours, textures and tranquillity of a summer's day at the beach. Perhaps it might remind you of your own favourite moments by the sea.
