About the artist

Patrick Bull

Meet the artist — Patrick Bull

Patrick Bull works from his studio on the Hampshire - Wiltshire border surrounded by the rolling downland and local nature spots such as the ancient Savernake Forest. After studying Painting and Drawing for a Fine Art degree at University he went on to spend over a decade working at a fine art foundry. It was here that he developed a wide skill set for creating sculpture. He now creates his own bronze sculptures, working on the pieces from initial conception through to patina. He has always enjoyed watching wildlife, especially birds, fascinated by their great variety of character, shape and colour. Determined to capture the rare and fleeting beauty of our feathered friends, his works aims to freeze a single moment observed in nature. Patrick hand finishes his own bronzes and creates limited editions pieces cast in foundry bronze and bronze resin. He exhibits regularly around the UK including outdoor shows at Newby Hall, The Cotswold Sculpture Park, Delamore Arts, National Trust - Avebury and a solo show at King John's House in Romsey.
