Bernard Reynolds
Bernard Reynolds (1915–1997) was an esteemed East Anglian artist with a special interest in sculpting. He was born in Norwich and lived for almost fifty years in Ipswich. For although Reynolds is most widely known as a sculptor, he possessed the capacity to be an inspirational teacher as well as an artist, and he fulfilled both of these roles with his own particular kind of integrity. Reynolds was characterised for his quietly rigorous self-imposed discipline to every project he undertook – and due to his multiple pursuits, his projects were many and varied.
==Early life==
Bernard Reynolds was born on 2 June 1915 in Norwich and lived for almost fifty years in Ipswich. In 1932, at the age of 17, he studied at Norwich School of Art (currently Norwich University of the Arts), where he was inspired by the art master, W.T. Watling. In the final year of his studies, he expressed his inclination towards sculpture. Led by Susan Lascelles for wood engraving, Reynolds became an admirer of Blair Hughes-Stanton. In 1937, he moved to London to continue his studies at the Westminster School of Art. One year later, Reynolds got a post as a naval instruments engineer in Nowich and this endured throughout the war times and thereafter. This wartime experience as an engineer seems to have strengthened rather than repressed his artistic practice. In fact, craftsmanship has influenced his observations vis-a-vis nature and mankind. He constantly expanded the knowledge of materials and techniques in his sculpture studio. As he noted, "I was one who was always interested in things, in specimens, and so that brought me round strongly on the side of sculpture ... the forms of solid nature rather than views of nature." Apropos of his Bird Skull Series, he explained "...it's symbolic of primaeval life which runs through nearly all my themes ... an upthrust of growth and energy."
