I
work from life, requiring approximately 8-10 hours for sittings
over an agreed period (sessions usually 1-2 hours by arrangement).
These sittings can take place in the studio in London or Dublin.
The clay thus produced is cast in bronze at the foundry and then
chemically treated to produce a patination to be chosen by the client
(as is the type of base on which the piece will sit.)
The sitting time can be shortened by 2-3 hours by the use of initial
measurements and photography.
As an artist my intentions are to produce a likeness which expresses
both the outward appearance of the subject and the inner life which
gives this appearance its personality and vivacity. In addition
to impart to the piece a quality of existence as sculpture.
