A Sculpture in Progress
Who Can be Sculpted?

The model for a portrait must be old enough and fit enough to sit for the numerous reference photographs and measurements that the sculptor must take.  The whole sitting usually takes only one hour.

Absolute stillness is NOT necessary and many rest breaks can be taken. But willing cooperation is a MUST.  

How Big Will The Portrait Be?

The portrait can be crafted at life size or smaller. You
will work with the sculptor to decide.

Step Four
You choose a finish - faux bronze, faux stone, or any color you wish.
And you choose a base of wood, stone, or corian.

Step Five
The clay sculpture is fired into ceramic and the finish is applied.
It is mounted on its base, and shipped to you.

Optional Step Six
The original ceramic portrait can be molded and copies can be cast in ceramic,
or bonded bronze, an economical alternative to foundry-cast bronze.
Or, if you wish, we will help you choose a foundry to cast a copy in real bronze.
