Creating a successful
portrait is more than just achieving a good likeness; it is also a
combination of capturing personality as well as designing a beautiful
sculpture that can stand on its own as a work of art.
Process circumstances
may vary, however the following steps are typical:
First sitting: We will
discuss design, size, patina, and base possibilities, once the details are
agreed upon I will take reference measurements and photos. Approx. 1-2
hrs.
Second sitting: I will
have created a rough from my reference: we will then begin the refining
process. Approx. 1-3 hrs.
Third sitting: Further
refining and if necessary, more sitings will be scheduked. Approx. 1-3
hrs.
Upon completion of the
sculpting process, a final approval will be obtained before casting.
