Paddy Bourke Sculpture
Paddy Bourke is a self taught artist who draws on classical art forms such as Michelango to seek perfection in human forms. He uses a press mould process and mainly wood fired soda and salt kilns. He likes the way the ash fallout settles on the forms and the natural colouring that gives his pieces a tanned fleshy look. He also uses metallic glazes and ceramic stains. Paddy describes his motivation for doing this work as coming from an inner energy that wells up while creating and perfecting his work. His work is to be found in homes world wide
