Reflections

This was a fun photo I took of the piece in the early steps of the Patina process (the process of giving the bronze desired colors)

The finished bronze!

working on the foam

It has been a fun experience to work on the foam. I first spent some time carving and sanding down some flaws. When that was finished I started putting on a thin layer a clay over the entire piece. The foam provides much of the needed structure but still needs some adjustments and detailing. Once the thin coat of clay is finished I will spend the next couple of weeks fine tuning the clay until it is finished.
I will post a few more photos in a couple of weeks.
