Ian Edwards was born in 1974. At the age of 16 he commenced a five year apprenticeship specialising in ornamental woodcarving. During his training Ian's love for the form and movement of both humans and animals developed.
Today Ian Edwards produces sculptures with a rare sensitivity. His keen observational skills are sucessfully applied in creating bronze sculptures of animals, birds and human forms. Ian's sculptures are very textural with a strong sense of life and movement. This coupled with fine patination techniques make Edwards sculptures highly sought after.
Ian Edwards beautifully observed images of the natural world are often inspired by walks in the woods of Somerset with his dogs. The area is blessed with birds and other wildlife so loved by Ian. Speaking about his sculpture, Ian Edwards says: "Creation is a continuous journey for me. My vision, my heart and my hands translate the energy of the figure directly to the senses of the observer.
In addition to Red Rag Gallery Ian Edwards sculptures have been exhibited wideley throughout the UK.
