Born in 1989 in Staffordshire, Elliot Channer showed a passion for wildlife and art from a young age. Largely self-taught, Elliot was very much influenced by the animal sculptures of Rembrandt, Bugatti Read more
and Antoine-Louis Barye and was described as one of the ‘young stars’ of the international art fair circuit by Belgravia magazine.
Taking inspiration from the countryside, initially both Staffordshire and Derbyshire, Elliot now travels the country to observe and photograph animals in their natural habitat. He focuses on capturing the life and grace of the subject, concentrating on their key features but allowing spontaneity to make up the main body of the sculpture.
Alongside life-size sculptures, he also scales down large animals, creating more manageable sculptures. Focusing his art on British and international wildlife, Elliot initially sculpts in clay with the works then being cast in bronze, each piece taking several weeks to complete. He works closely with the team of skilled craftsmen at the bronze foundry in Birmingham, where his work is cast using the ancient ‘Lost Wax’ process to complete. All his sculptures are small, limited editions and are sourced by Red Rag Gallery direct from the sculptor’s studio.
In addition to Red Rag Gallery, Elliot Channer exhibits at other leading British art galleries and is represented in collections all over the UK.
