Biography
Ian Greensitt, born in 1971, grew up in Tynedale and went to school in Newcastle. He had his first sculpture commission at the age of 9, when the headmaster of his prep school asked him to sculpt a brown trout for his study. Subsequently, Ian studied abstract sculpture at Northumbria University, graduating with a BA (Hons) in Sculpture in 2001. Since then, he has been able to pursue his twin passions of fishing and wildlife art to widespread acclaim.
In the early days, Ian worked in ceramic (particularly fish) and this experience helped him develop the refined style of his bronze and silver work today, which captures the grace and movement of his subjects whilst maintaining their vitality.
His bronze sculptures are sold in limited editions of 9 and the majority of his work is commissioned. One of his latest, a life size ‘ Leaping Roe Deer’ was inspired by several months of study and observation on Lord Allendale’s Estate near his home.
Ian’s work is exhibited throughout the UK and in North America, in Washington DC and Kelowna in British Columbia. His worldwide list of clients and collectors is extensive and they all eagerly await his limited edition runs where his sensitivity and ability to interpret living creatures are highly prized.
In 2006, Ian donated a ‘Curlew’ in bronze to the Game Conservancy Council’s Scottish Auction, together with a ‘Grey Partridge’ in bronze to the October 2006 London Sporting Auction in aid of the grey partridge recovery project in Northumberland.
Ian’s passionate commitment to the conservation of wildlife remains as strong as his dedication to his art.
