Artists creating classical
and contemporary sculpture.

Portraiture

Stephen is often asked to undertake portrait commissions. Though Stephen prefers to work directly from life he is happy to work from his own photographs and has also worked from clients personal photographs for posthumous portraits. The style very much reflects the individual being portrayed, the finished portrait can be produced in Coade or any colour terracotta as well as the more traditional material of bronze.

Animals

Stephen prefers to work from photos that he has taken himself of the subject. This would require one or two photograph sessions in order to capture every angle and detail. Once the portrait is nearly completed it is often good to have a final sitting to check the accuracy of the sculpture against the model.

 

Reliefs

Stephen’s reliefs are largely worked up from photographs that he takes combined with extensive measurements and a final sitting to check accuracy and detail.
