Artists Speak – Dealing with Isolation

Bill Lockyer – Stone Sculptor

“My name is Bill, I am born and raised in Ottawa. I am still working at CHEO on the cancer ward. I have been working in lots of venues such as painting and wood sculpture, I have built a wooden rocking horse but my main interest is soap stone, which I have been doing for several years.

I have followed Patrick Imai for several years and I like his style. I was looking forward to attending the National Capital Network of Sculptors meetings and will attend once they resume. I don’t have a website yet, but here are some examples of my work. I did a show at the Gem and Stone in the fall at the Nepean Sportsplex. I always question what prices to put on pieces and by attending the NCNS meetings I hope to get some feed back regarding this. Looking forward to meeting all of you in the future.”

Hello Maria, thank you for posting Bills works, it looks great. Like to mention though, his last name is spelt wrong, it should be LOCKYER, the Y was dropped. Lots of people spell it different ways.

Thanks Janet and Bill
