Amanda Hughes Lubeck
Amanda Hughes-Lubeck is a British sculptor renowned for her bronze equestrian and wildlife artworks. Trained at the prestigious Sir Henry Doulton School of Sculpture under the guidance of celebrated sculptor Dame Elisabeth Frink, Hughes-Lubeck developed a strong foundation in traditional modelling and figurative sculpture. She went on to work for Royal Doulton for nearly a decade, creating over one hundred sculptural designs and refining the craftsmanship and attention to detail that continue to define her work today.
Working predominantly in bronze and clay, Hughes-Lubeck is best known for her dynamic depictions of horses, animals, and commemorative subjects. Her sculptures combine realism with movement and emotional depth, capturing both the physical power and spirit of her subjects.
Throughout her career she has completed major commissions including portraits of Queen Elizabeth II’s riding pony Emma, sculptures of the legendary racehorse Red Rum, and public artworks such as The Tree of Life for Doncaster Royal Infirmary.
