About The Artwork
I have a love of birds and animals, I strive to give life and character to all my unique, figurative depictions, which are predominately made from re-used metal objects and new stainless steel. The Farrier's Dog was inspired by my own dog. We used to keep horses so I had a large amount of used horseshoes to work with. The piece was an ongoing project over four months during which time it was cutback and rebuilt several times in different places to get the proportions and the dynamic of movement I wished to portray. The piece was originally coated in fine christaline wax and has now developed the lovely red patina you see now.

Ireland
A British artist living in West Cork, Ireland. Self taught in a multitude of disciplines, Nigel Connell Bass is well known for his sculpture work in new and recycled metals, predominantly life-size depictions of birds and animals. He worked for 10 years, as a scenic artist for a busy Theatre production company, before moving with a young family to Ireland in 1996. Bringing up a young family after the move to Ireland, and completing a self-build house, meant that for a few years, art took a backseat role as he worked mainly painting, decorating and sign-writing to make a regular living wage. In 2015 Nigel returned to art full-time. He is enjoying success regularly exhibiting his sculpture work at prestigious venues throughout Ireland and continues to explore new concepts in sculpture and also painting in acrylics onto rusted metal sheets.
