Bob Hill's Sculpture

Listed above are the various categories of my work.....you can "click" on the link to go to any one of these.

This site contains photos and information about my sculpture. As you will see,
I work in steel, terracotta clay, bronze, and other materials. I do realistic pieces of
sculpture, as well as  abstactions from reality which reflect the lines, angles, flow, 
and curves that I see in people and nature.

The various sections of this website are listed on the left side of this page.

Through my sculpture I aim to express the rhythm, drama and flow of human existence, using both figurative and abstract forms. My sculptures evolve as they are created, leading to unexpected discovery and dynamic expression. I try to stimulate emotional responses to my work, and I feel my sculpture is effective to the extent it is pleasurable, interesting or provocative to the viewer.

While I have been completing a six foot abstract commission, I have been working on the figure pictured below who "leaped" in to my mind with her bird!  I call the work "Celestial Messenger."  She seems at home midst our ficus:

                                            

I like to continue working on "realistic" pieces while I do abstract work as I think it helps with the flow of my abstractions. .....I'll include a picture of the new commission after its installed in South Jersey.

I' have also been trying different materials and different combinations.  The new pieces below use armatures of steel, styrene and terracotta with steel resin and hydrostone exteriors, and in some cases bronze coating:

"Many Paths"                               "Creative Flow"                  "Innocence" 

Similar materials were used for these horse sculptures.  I never would have been able to create a standing horse without solid steel back legs!

             

 "High Plains Challenger"                   "Chesnut Pride"

I continue to look for ways to integrate wood in my pieces as its warmth contrasts well with the bronze-coated steel I often use:

       

      "Cherished Dream"                           "Elusive Messenger"

     "Seeking the Truth"

by incorporating a hubcap rescued from a landfill into a wall sculpture:
