About the Item
'Tawny Owl' is so full of character, you feel he's about to fly from his perch as you look at him. Richard Smith, a part-time gamekeeper, communicates his love and knowledge of animals with each sculpture he creates - a true master in his field!
Richard Smith has gained an international reputation for his works of art, he has exhibited at prestigious galleries such as the Tryon Gallery and W. H. Pattersons in London, The Sportsman’s Edge Gallery in New York, The Call of Africa in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and the Everard Reed Gallery in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Richard has exhibited his paintings at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum in the USA, the Natural History Museum and Tring Museum in Britain. He has sold at all the major auctions houses in London, such as Christie’s, Sotheby’s, Bonhams and Phillips.
In 2013 Callaghans of Shrewsbury commissioned a series of life size bronze birds. His works include British birds such as the elusive Snipe sitting atop a fence post and the beautiful Little Blue penguin, a native of New Zealand. His works are all studied from life whilst either out in the field or in a museum with taxidermy. With incredible attention to detail Richard has breathed fresh air into this medium.
