WHAT ABOUT SECURITY?
Many people ask me about securing the sculptures so that they are not easy to steal.
I have designed the base of each sculpture with this in mind. There is a 1" nut welded to the underside of the base in to which a 10" piece of threaded stainless steel can be fitted. When the sculpture is positioned, this can be cemented in, rendering the sculpture immovable.
How long will it take for my sculpture to be delivered?
I have some of the sculptures in stock. Others I have to order from the foundry. If the sculpture is in stock I can send it out or deliver it within a week. If it has to be cast to order it can take between 3 and 5 months depending on the piece.
Where can I see the sculptures?
My gallery is attached to my studio and therefore I am nearly always around on week days but it's best to make an appointment to view as I do sometimes go out and it would be a shame to make a wasted journey.
Will the colour change over time?
If a bronze is outside it will loose its shine and go green if not treated. I recommend waxing about once a month with furniture wax and a brush followed by a polish with a cloth. This should keep your bronze in top condition.
How do you make the sculptures?
Please see the NEWS page for a detailed description of the sculpting process.
