This is a fantastic opportunity to attend a talk by British Wildlife Sculptor Hamish Mackie at his studio in Oxfordshire and later visit the Foundry which casts all his work. Hamish’s bronze wildlife sculptures capture instinctive moments of animal behaviour. He manages to convey the inner core, strength and grace of his subject. His assertive handling of his materials, coupled with an acute understanding of anatomy, results in strong, dynamic, ‘living’ sculptures. As he says, “You should be able to look wildlife sculpture in the eye and see life.” His work features in private and public collections around the world. Do visit his website.

Venue: Hook Norton, Oxfordshire from 10.30 to 12am, lunch, and then travel to the foundry in Banbury for a tour at about 2pm.
