Three times awarded 5 Gold Stars at RHS Chelsea
Literary bronze Water Features & Sculptures to enchant your garden
Robert James Workshop has three times been awarded 5 Gold Stars at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show
Handcrafted Bronze Sculptures for the Garden
Robert and James have been together making art works of various kinds for nearly 30 years.
Living in the rolling hills of West Dorset, a stones throw from the Jurassic coast, sculptures based upon their love of literature are taking shape. Classic illustrations are modeled in clay and then turned into bronze – sculptures for the garden – stories to be enjoyed in the round.
Using old tools and finger prints to press, move and model clay into position to capture the breath of the character...as if momentarily they have stepped out of the book into the three dimensional world.
