ABOUT
Tim Cotterill (English, Born 1950)
Tim Cotterill is renowned and loved across the globe for his covetable and collectible creatures – usually the frogs which give him his nickname, ‘Frogman’, but birds, geckos and koi feature too.
Born in Leicester in 1950, Tim left school at the age of 15 and completed a six-year electrical engineering apprenticeship before moving onto landscape design and construction, and stone masonry.
Always fascinated by metalworking and fast machines Tim started designing and building radical wheeled vehicles in his spare time, and using the leftover elements to create welded steel animals and birds during the 1970s.
Those early pieces became collectible through private commission, exhibitions, galleries and auction houses, including London’s world-renowned Sotheby’s.
In 1972, a life-changing trip to California led to a lifelong love of the state, and he began visiting regularly and creating life-sized one-off welded steel owls, parrots, eagles and hawks which were an instant hit at street art shows across the States – he created over 380 original welded steel sculptures between 1972 and1990.
By 1990, he had moved to Los Angeles permanently, was living in a rented garage in Venice Beach, and had started designing and making his now famous bronze frogs.
Twenty-eight years later and now a proud American citizen, Tim lives in his own ‘funky barn cabin compound’ structure in bohemian Venice Beach.
He has designed over 200 limited edition bronze frog designs ranging from small tabletop and wall-mounted pieces to monumental sculptures, and including an annual Mother’s Day frog-and-flower tribute to his late mum, a floral art judge and horticulturist.
He has also recently returned to his roots, introducing a range of bronze birds, including his favourite, owls, parrots and kingfishers.

ABOUT
Steve Winterburn
Steve Winterburn (born 1959, Coventry) is a self-taught artist whose creative development has been fuelled by his conviction, immense energy and curiosity. Possessing an innate comprehension of engineering and design enables him to explore his passion for challenge and experimentation.
Steve began teaching himself to sculpt in 1994. With the progression of his sculpting an ambition emerged to personally shape each piece of his work from concept
to completion. He had entrusted the casting of his earlier bronzes to the established foundries. But the delays in delivering his work became frustrating
and he was disillusioned by the changes that resulted from not handling the finishing stages himself.
In 2002 Steve moved to Yorkshire, in the north of England, and began converting the vast workshop next to his house into the current 9 room studio & foundry.
It was here he started to experiment in order to gain an understanding of the entire process that is traditionally a closely guarded secret handed down between
foundry men. The challenges included mastering mould making skills and the lost wax impression of the moulds from which a one off ceramic mould is made
ready for the bronze pouring. Expanding his expertise with chasing the bronze, his ability to hand work the malleable surface and with the patina (colours).
These stages are normally undertaken by a succession of different people, each skilled in their particular phase of the evolving sculpture. Involvement with a diversity of initiatives has taken Steve to India, Peru, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Australia and Ethiopia, sculpting people and animals.
Steve has regularly exhibited with Hickmet Fine Arts at the internationally acclaimed LAPADA Fine Art and Antiques Fairs ( the highly prestigious UK Antiques Federation) and twice with The Wildlife Arts Society at the Westminster Gallery where in 1998 he won the award for best 3 dimensional piece. He has exhibited twice at the Royal Academy in London.
