Although Eddie Hallam has previously spent many years carving birds, he found that sculpting gave him greater flexibility and freedom than working entirely in wood.
Each sculpture is designed and created by Eddie Hallam who combines his artistic talent with his extensive experience of wildlife watching to capture the essence of his subjects in sculptural form. Each original, life-size sculpture is based on Eddie`s own observations, field sketches and photographs. Once cast in bronze and individually patinated, these beautiful pieces make an exculsive and distinctive addition to any home or workspace.

Eddie Hallam was an award-winning nature reserve warden and a former wildlife park director.
Eddie Hallam is a sculptor. First and foremost, however, he is an ative and passionate wildlife conservationist. An outdoor countryman through and through, he is never happier than when in remote, wild places studying and watching wildlife.
Although widely travelled, his favourite places are the outlying islands of Scotland. He feels particularly privileged to have spent an entire month on the inaccessible and uninhabited islands of St. Kilda where he was able to observe and sketch the massive seabird colonies. It was this particular expedition which fuelled his desire to sculpt a range of seabirds and have them cast in bronze.
Although he generally prefers to concentrate on British birds and mammals, he is currently sculpting a Spanish Lynx - a beautiful but highly endangered species. Through his sculptures Eddie hopes to promote interest in wildlife and foster support for its effective conservation.
