Biography
Sculptor, painter and illustrator, born in Birmingham, England, where she attended the Moseley Junior Art School at the age of twelve. She then studied Industrial Design at Birmingham College of Art.

She moved to London where she worked as technical illustrator and graphic designer and became Art Editor of several trade journals. After her marriage to a scientist, Amelia gave up commercial art to become a sculptor, often using her four sons as models, sketching and sculpting them every day.

She had her first one-person show in 1971 at the John Whidley Gallery, Cork Street, and continues to exhibit widely throughout the UK and Europe. Amelia has received a number of commissions to sculpt many heads and busts of well known personalities and public figures over the years, including Stephane Grappelli, Stirling Moss (the racing driver), Sir John Rothenstein and the actress Zoë Wanamaker, to name but a few. She has also worked with a number of theatre companies, dance troups and mime artists, and was the subject of a television documentary by Harlech Television in 1988.

She was made an Associate of the Royal Society of British Sculptors in 1988 and now lives and works from her home in The Cotswolds.
