Wildlife sculptor Elliot Channer is displaying his latest work at Thompson's Gallery in Harpenden.

Elliot has been a professional wildlife sculptor since 2013, having studied at the City & Guilds of London Art School.

The main focus of his art is creating life-sized birds, sculpted in clay and cast in bronze - a process which takes between six and eight weeks to complete.

His work has previously been exhibited at the Chelsea Flower Show and the Doha Garden Expo.

Elliot said: "My aim is to capture the elegance and movement of the subject in instinctive mark making and a focus on form and shape. 

"It is a privilege to be showing several of my latest sculptures, including my peregrine falcon and wren, at the gallery."
