Bobbie Watchorn
BOBBIE has lived most of her life in the countryside, and being a farmer's wife spends a lot of time in the rural environment, immersed in the glory of nature and observing both domesticated and non domesticated animals. She often finds that something quirky, amusing, or characterful strikes her and she wishes to capture it in form. Having drawn and painted from childhood, she finds she can express herself most freely with the three dimensional image.

Bobbie works mainly in ceramics and cold cast bronze and will often do several “sketch pieces” to see what seems to work from all angles, as essentially sculpture should work in the round. She tries to capture the spirit of the subject without always portraying it in a totally literal sense, hoping that her work conveys a mixture of the essence of the subject and a little bit of her!

She often works in binge sessions when she is excited by her subject, no-one gets fed and the house gathers  dust! She is drawn to the gentle humour of a subject or its innate character and would like others to see the subject perhaps in a way not always thought of before.
