Stuart Anderson

Stuart Anderson is known for his bronze sculptures of animals, and also works from the human figure. In the last few years he has concentrated on the elegant and vital forms of greyhounds and horses, and also works from more unusual but sculpturally interesting subjects such as goats. He works in clay or wax and casts his sculptures into bronze himself, using the lost wax process.

He has worked in Suffolk as a sculptor since finishing art college in 1992, and has worked on many commissions the latest being a life-sized standing horse, in bronze.

‘I work from life where possible, with the model, animal or human in front of me, preferring natural, unforced and sometimes quickly observed poses, which always say more about the model (character and physical nature). I try to convey the vitality of the living body, to explore and learn about the anatomy and to make strong sculptural forms.’
