Merseyside's Art Melting Pot

'Couple' by Sean Henry
Near completion at our works August 2007.

At Liverpool Art and Sculpture Works we embrace everything to do with the production of artworks: Ceramics, paint, metal, paper, canvas, clay, lighting, audio, glass, pneumatics, wood, resins, hydraulics, plastics, polymers and silicones.

Our facilities attract Artists working in all forms media and scales from the smallest clay sculpture to large bronze and aluminium castings to giant steel fabrications .

If a piece of artwork creates a thought or a mood, or encourages a smile, or even an argument " it's a job well done ". We think it is that simple.
