Robert Bliss

Robert Bliss is a self-taught sculptor. He is an artist member of Rockport Art Association and Museum, North Shore Arts Association and Marblehead Arts Association. He has won awards for “Mug Up”, his Bearskin Neck bear, a bronze Great Blue Heron, and “Nintendo”. “His use of a very traditional material to express a most contemporary activity is a wonderful touch,” Elizabeth Clark of North Shore Magazine said of his high-action skateboarder sculpture.

Robert believes in “giving back” by donating to organizations and charities such as “Dun Fudgin’” to the 2021 Seaside Sustainability auction; a relief of a World War II Tuskegee Airman fighter pilot to Tuskegee University; a bronze gorilla portrait to the Franklin Park Zoo; “Going Aloft”, a fisherman climbing the rigging to Seacoast Nursing and Rehabilitation Center; and “Gloucester Harbor”, detailing crabs and mussels on a piling, to Maritime Gloucester.
