Don’t you just love scum like this, that try to pass off other people’s talent and artwork as their own, to rip off innocent art lovers? “YouFine Art and Sculpture” https://www.cnstatue.com/large-bronze-standing-grizzly-bear-statue-wild-animal-sculpture-for-sale-bokk-303.html. Passing my life size bronze Kodiak Bear, “Indomitable”, commissioned by Brown University in 2013, off as their own work. Makes me both mad and sad. #angry #sad #counterfeit #scam #thieves #nickbibby #sculpture https://www.instagram.com/p/CTU5w-aKIna/?utm_medium=tumblr

When I was a kid, growing up in Bishop Auckland, in the north east of England, I never ever dreamed that, one day, me and my art would be featured within the pages of the regions biggest newspaper, “The Northern Echo”! 😃 I cannot tell you how much it means to me as a “Bishop born lad” 🥰 https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/18983374.sculptor-nick-bibby-recalls-roots-bishop-auckland/ @thenorthernecho #childhooddream #bishopauckland #nickbibby #sculpture #sculptor https://www.instagram.com/p/CJoRIwer_uf/?igshid=57qj5fgsptac

This needs no further comment from me 😔 Please take a look. #Repost @steverussellstudios with @get_repost ・・・ Sundowners - An online fundraiser to support ‘Conservation in Crisis’ @olpejeta ‘Sudan the Monument’ Sudan' is 1110 mm in length by 517 mm wide and 400 mm heigh. The weight of the bronze is 105 kg. Profits kindly donated by Rungwe Kingdon and @pangolineditions In the impending tragedy of Sudan’s death in March 2018 we wanted to record with the best means possible the actuality of what the extinction of the northern white rhino means with a powerful but poignant three dimensional image. The first time humans realised they could exterminate an entire species was the Dodo, now 360 years later we are facing extinctions on an enormous scale and we felt that Sudan could become a totemic symbol, at least as potent as the iconic images of the Dodo, but one for our own age. To this end we recorded Sudan with photogrammetry and white light scanning and from these digital records 3D printed and sculpted first this metre long Maquette and then a fully life size sculpture. It is intended to be a monument to Sudan and his species a plea for all the other species we are having such an immense impact on and to try and convey something of what it feels like to be in the presence of such a magnificent animal.

Phew!! 😅 These 3 brand new bronzes made it, with only hours to spare, to the opening of the 57th Annual Exhibition, held by The Society of Wildlife Artists at The Mall Galleries, London. The exhibition opened today and runs until November 8th. Thanks to @pangolineditions for turning my original wax sculptures into such incredible bronzes, and to @steverussellstudios for pulling out all the stops too, taking these stunning images! You can book tickets to visit the exhibition to see them and hundreds of other works of art, inspired by the natural world, either in person, or browse the show from the safety of your own home - https://www.mallgalleries.org.uk/whats-on/exhibitions/natural-eye-2020 The world is a weird place right now, so take some time for yourself, enjoy the exhibition, support the arts, hopefully be inspired, and remember that there is so much beauty in nature 😍 Love and best wishes to you all 😊❤️❤️❤️ #societyofwildlifeartists @mallgalleries #wildlifeart #artoftheday #artist #wildlifeartist #bronze #sculptures #nickbibby #sculptors https://www.instagram.com/p/CG5YqLfLhG7/?igshid=1kvrg3jgun4ap

“The Lovebirds” An unashamedly sentimental, simple, little piece depicting two life size Long Tailed Tits, snuggled up together on a branch. This is the original wax, sculpted for my wife, to celebrate our wedding anniversary 🥰💕 She gets her own cast, but I am also producing it in bronze, in an edition of 25 for all those other lovebirds out there! 🥰 Available to pre-order now. Contact me for details via my website: www.nickbibby.com #truelove #lovebirds #birdsculpture #bronzesculpture #longtailedtit #wildlifesculptures #birdart #nickbibby #sculpture #sculptors https://www.instagram.com/p/CFueG-rhODl/?igshid=exp6s66235a3

Just another little taster. 4 photos of my recent, life size, Peregrine Falcon sculpt. Done during lockdown, she’s now at the foundry being cast into bronze 👍😊 #peregrinefalcon #peregrine #peregrinesculpture #falconsculpture #birdsofprey #birdsofinstagram #birdsculpture #birdart #falconry #wildlifesculpture #wildlifeart #wildlifeartist #bronzesculpture #sculpting #sculpture #nickbibby #sculptor #swla #saafaf #pangolineditions https://www.instagram.com/p/CEXDmrKBGiJ/?igshid=lzsrfmcopg3g

Apologies, this is my 1st post for a while. A short slideshow of the, now completed, Peregrine Falcon, sculpted in Chavant Le Beaux Touché clay over an aluminium, copper and wood armature. The completed sculpture will be available in bronze, in 2 separate editions of 15. 1 attached to a base and 1 flying free, suspended from a fine stainless steel wire. These are available to pre-order now and the 1st cast bronzes will be ready in a few months. I will post again, with a few photos and a bit more detail soon. This has been a very challenging piece for numerous reasons, which I won’t go into now, so I hope you like the results! 🤞😊 #peregrinefalcon #peregrine #peregrinesculpture #falconsculpture #birdsofprey #birdsofinstagram #birdsculpture #birdart #falconry #wildlifesculpture #wildlifeart #wildlifeartist #bronzesculpture #sculpting #sculpture #nickbibby #sculptor #swla #saafaf https://www.instagram.com/p/CDv7DyIhDgO/?igshid=14yyx9qod0ybe

Life size Peregrine Falcon armature. One of the most complicated & intricate armatures I have ever made. The aim being to allow me to work fast, imparting energy and a real sense of movement and speed, whilst still maintaining anatomical accuracy as I sculpt. We’ll see how I get on! 🤞😊 #peregrinefalcon #birdsofprey #birdart #birdsculpture #bronzesculpture #armature #wildlifesculpture #wildlifeart #wildlifeartist #nickbibby #sculpture #sculptor https://www.instagram.com/p/CAOAppdBe0i/?igshid=p0ph974npg1p
