About...
James Sutton - Artist, sculptor, and designer based in East Midlands, UK.
James works in stone, metal and bronze from his studio on Hall farm in Gainsborough. He produces work to commission and exhibits throughout the country creating small personal works and Public Art.
After graduating from studying Art at the University of Lincoln in 2005 James began his career as a sculptor. Initially working part time as a graphic designer James was able to focus on his sculpture full time in 2007. Although working out of the outbuilding in his terrace house wasn’t ideal so eventually he took the plunge and started to rent his current studio The Sculpture Barn on Hall Farm in Harpswell, Gainsbrough in 2010. Over the past 15+ years his work has taken many directions but always inspired by his love of nature and the emotions it evokes. His work can be both figurative and abstract. Currently James works mostly to commission, creating personal works for a wide range of clients from private homes and gardens to large pieces of public art for businesses and councils. He also exhibits at galleries and sculpture shows and sells his work through his website shop.
Throughout his career James has been supported by his wife and the three children that followed.
In the past and when breaks in commissions allows it James enjoys running all kinds of Creative Workshops for the community. For all ages and abilities from care homes too primary schools, people with special needs, mental health difficulties and isolated groups in the community. As well as private classes from his studio.
