• About the process:
Each bronze is initially created as a one-of-a-kind wheel-thrown or hand carved clay creation. Once shaped, the piece is allowed to semi-dry to what is called the leather-hard stage.
After it reaches this "half dry" state the piece is able to be shaped, carved and textured. Once completely dry - or 'bone dry' it is placed in an electric kiln for a 'bisque firing' which takes many, many hours reaching a temp of approximately 1800 degrees. After the piece has completed this bisque process, it is made into a mold that will be used in the lost wax method of bronze casting.
