Adam Roud’s artistic journey began with an apprenticeship at Atelier Fine Art Castings in Hampshire, providing invaluable experience working hands-on with materials like clay, wax, and casting metals. This deep understanding of the sculpting process is evident in his remarkable body of work.
Roud’s pieces showcase his mastery of both figurative and abstract styles. His lifelike animal studies capture movement and anatomical nuances in bronze, while larger abstract works explore volume, balance, and pushing the boundaries of the medium.
Roud fuses tradition and innovation, with his works initially evoking 19th-century animaliers but revealing a distinctly modern, abstracted approach upon closer study. His multidisciplinary talents extend to teaching, as head of the respected art school, College Arts in Hampshire.
