Recently, I have been sculpting direct using white Laguna clay and firing it to cone 06. A public commission for a bronze relief in South Portland, Maine.
This way I spend more of my time actually creating and less time molding and casting.
The results are sculptures that are unique single copies produced quickly and without foundry costs.
Although bronze is a desired medium, terracotta sculptures, thousands of years old,
are displayed in museums throughout
the world.
