Set in the Yorkshire countryside, Steve Winterburn’s foundry is surrounded by British wildlife. Inspired by the animals he saw, Winterburn set about immortalising them in bronze. Studying the native animals, the owl and the rabbit, the artist has gained a deep understanding of his subject, allowing him to capture their physical form as well as their spirit. Always preferring to study an animal in person before he recreates its likeness in bronze, Winterburn captures the energy of the creature in the expressive eyes of his sculptures.
