Mould Making and Casting

Since the blog started back on March 1, 2011, I've been almost exclusively talking about my own work.  I just wanted to show some images of recently completed moulding and casting projects for other artists.

The above pictures show the mould and original. The 'Bull' sculpture was created by Donald Liardi .
You can find more of Don's  work at triasgallery.com

The above art work is by the artist Siggy Puchta.  Siggy is one of the most versatile sculptors I've ever seen.

This is another example of Siggy's work. The first Heron image is of the original clay model after moulding and the second is of the wax cast produced from a silicone mould that I constructed for it. The third picture is a detail shot showing model and wax cast. All of the wax casts are finished by the artist then given to a foundry to cast into bronze.
Next time, I  should have some progress shots of the "Young Woman " later this week.
