GREG WOODARD

About this artist

Woodard is a master falconer and has a deep passion for understanding the raptors he studies. He carries the love and knowledge from these powerful birds into his work. Woodard believes each of his pieces tells a story; he shows this through the interaction between human and animal, expressing how they are affected.  Another important feature of Woodard’s work is the railroad track theme, which symbolizes the cultural impact of the opening of the West.

Museum collections and public installations include the Ella Sharp Museum in Jackson, Michigan; the Ward Museum in Salisbury, Maryland; the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin; Union Depot in Ogden, Utah; and Verde Canyon Railroad in Clarkdale, Arizona. His work is featured in the book, Greg Woodard’s Art of Bird Sculpture by Kurt M. Robinette.
