Jeff Birchill

Jeff Birchill took a 30 year detour from producing fine art to being a commercial artist. When he returned to his first love in 2000 he started sculpting stone seriously, becoming a Signature Artist Member of The Society of Animal Artists (2013), an Elected Member of the National Sculpture Society (2015), past member of the American Society of Marine Artist (2015), and recently Artist for Conservation (2018). He has been accepted into six of the Society of Animal Artist Annual Exhibitions, one of his sculptures received the SAA highest award, The Award of Excellence. This year one of his sculptures was selected as one of 55 representing the National Sculpture Society. “Rock Crawler” was purchased by the Blauvelt Art Museum, Oradell, NJ, for their permanent collection (2017), and recently “Born to Run Free” was selected to be part of The Brookgreen Garden’s, Pawley Island, SC, permanent collection of sculpture. One of his River Otters will be headed to The James Museum of Western and Wildlife Art, St. Petersberg, FL.
