Overview

Gareth Fisher RSA is an artist renowned for his work in sculpture, construction and watercolour painting. 

 

Fisher tends to work in plaster but also makes constructions with wood and stone as well as sometimes casting in bronze.

In both his early and more recent work, Fisher combines realism with abstract motifs.
