Welcome to my site that incorporates all my creative expressions through sculpture, painting and illustration. There is a lot to see and hopefully, something that with capture your imagination or even your heart.

Having trained as a designer, I have spread my wings into areas that I would not have dreamed possible over recent years. Showing my work at Chelsea Flower Show and some amazing venues and galleries around the UK, everything here is to create a 'smile inside'. If I can do this, then I'm a happy man.

Enoy the works and please make contact to discuss any private or public works that take your interest.

Stephen

I'm Stephen Charlton - a multi-award-winning sculptor creating witty and unique bronze animal sculptures for my customers' gardens and landscapes in the UK. Every one of my bronze sculptures are limited edition. When I cast my sculptures, I limit them to only nine – to retain their uniqueness and originality.

Once the nine pieces have been reached, I break the mould. Speaking with my clients, they appreciate that only a small number are available and this – like most art, becomes scarcer. If you are looking for a one-off bespoke bronze garden sculpture, then this can be arranged at point of consultation, meaning you are owning a truly unique limited-edition piece of art for your garden.

These magnificent bronze animal sculptures stand proud in their surroundings, stunning to look at and are always a talking point for friends and guests when visiting your outdoor space or garden - igniting memories and their imagination that take them away from our busy, noisy world.
The opportunity to look into a garden and experience a bronze mouse swinging with glee or a large hare offering his beloved a carrot filled with flowers is not only unusual but also tranquil and satisfying.

In our initial consultation we will assess the landscape or garden and suggest the best location for your bronze garden sculpture to be situated. Ensuring the surroundings are the best possible to get the maximum enjoyment, and impact from the sculpture of your choice.

I provide a full package. From the initial consultation, I will sketch the design and, upon approval, will then cast the bronze garden sculpture at the foundry I work with closely. After your bronze garden sculpture is fully complete, I can also offer an installation service, meaning the full project is hassle free, just for you - the customer.

SIX EASY STEPS

1 PURPOSE
The first step is to be clear in what you want to achieve. Whether it be a central garden sculpture or an interior design piece.

2 BRIEFING
Based on your initial thoughts, I will meet with you and explore new ways to exceed your expectations.

3 LOCATION
Finding the right location for your new arrival is crucial to your experience and enjoyment of it. The space around the sculpture is as important as the piece itself.

4 SCALE
Depending on location, the scale of the piece can be sized accordingly based on the proportions of the small model (maquette) produced.
5 PROCESS
From the original sculpture, silicone moulds are made and the ‘lost wax casting process’ is used. A colour (patina) is applied to suit the piece and agreed with you, the customer.

6 INSTALLATION
The delivery and installation is all taken care of to ensure the safety and permanence
of the piece. And of course, your satisfaction!
