GALLERY


Paper is a medium I’ve been drawn to since childhood, familiar, accessible, and endlessly versatile. Its tactile quality resonates with people because it’s so universally known, yet its creative potential is often underestimated. Paper lends itself to a wide range of styles, from abstract, free-form 3D structures to highly detailed, photo-realistic work.
I have experimented with paper’s strength, flexibility, texture, and ability to take on colour.
In my sculptures, I combine a variety of materials to bring each subject to life. I often use paper as a kind of ‘cladding,' much like feathers on a bird, allowing it to be the defining surface element while relying on stronger materials for internal structure. This lets the paper shine as a primary visual feature without compromising durability.
Each piece is built to last. I use only the highest quality materials such as pastel paper, along with professional-grade clays, metal, wood, and wire.

I am delighted to say that my paper sculptures 'Pongo' and 'Pairing of Paradise' will be at Weston Park in the Rose Paterson Gallery from 1st May to 28th May with the Association of Animal Artists.
This year, the Association this supporting Wild Welfare a charity dedicated to improving captive animals welfare.
Both pieces will be available through the gallery.
COMMISSIONS
I accept commissions! From loved pets to wildlife subjects, I would love to create your request. Commissions form an important part of my work, whilst also being held in private and public collections.

I love to work very close to a client in order to discuss and understand visions and ideas to be able to achieve an artwork of the highest quality.
I enjoy delving into each subjects personality and strive to bring it to life as if it were in the room with you.
I work with a large variety of materials from paper to epoxy clays to wood, which means the possibilities are endless with any creation.
I enjoy working at all scales, big or small capturing a particular likeness and personality. However, I also like to scale things down and capture the smallest detail in a miniature tabletop scale.
If you would be interested in a sculpture, painting or miniature scene, please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss any ideas.
You can email me at: jamielordart@gmail.com
I look forward to hearing from you!
![Didn’t realise I hadn’t posted a video of my recent mandrill wood carving! This was a step into a different style for me but one I want to develop further. Expect some more of this in the future!
I am planning a new collection of work which I have already started which will involve some feathered friends 🤫🪶
What would you like to see me make next? 👇

![‘Fierce Vigilance’ 🐒 And my new mandrill sculpture is complete! This one is a little change to the norm for me. A bit more lose and abstract! This piece started from a lump of wood and was chainsaw carved before being sculpted and painted.
Lots of new methods and techniques with this one, and definitely something I want to develop further. I’m planning some new pieces in a similar style so watch this space! 🦁 🐾

![Some more details of my latest piece, ‘The Price of Attention’ 🐆 This sculpture looks into the impact of over tourism on species like the cheetah, and how it is drastically affecting their livelihood.
I’ve gone for something a bit different with this sculpture, a bit more textured and also trying a bronze look to it. Hope you like him! 🐆

![Here’s something new to share… one of my latest pieces, ‘The Price of Attention’ 🐆
This piece has been submitted to @dswfwildlifeart as part of WAY25.
Cheetahs are one of the most affected species of over tourism in Africa. As much good tourism does for wildlife conservation, it also impacts species ability to hunt, reproduce, and rest. With the cheetah being the most affected by it.
I have sculpted this cheetah in a frustrated and scared composition, with lots of jeep wheel tracks left around him showing the physical and mental impact it is having to wildlife.
What do you think? 🐆
