You will be able to follow the making of the portrait head sculpture and its casting into Bronze - of a special Welsh Springer Spaniel boy.
This project will be spread on a schedule to fit with the clients - but here is a taste of the individual we will be looking to capture
First stages of armature
first clay
Working up - looking for the topline
filling out the profile and work on the nose and eye sockets
First sketch of some ears
Building up the face and neck
Working on all the views
eyes in and working on the nose and mouth
first look with ears sketched in, mouth fuller
Neck increasingly developed
Starting to fill out the cheeks
Ready for work on site
Lovely visit with Jack and family - intensive sessions to make his likeness - helped by those who know him best.
Lovely boy - even in an eclipse!
Back to the studio to finish his hair details, especially on those wonderful ears.
Finished and with the delighted clients
