Sam Commission Finalized Today Foundry Tomorrow



Sam, the Commission, is done today. I worked on it a bit today.. just improving the fur, while waiting for the client, Todd Connor, to stop by my house and studio, to approve the clay. He worked on it and I worked on it for several hours till we had the clay finished. I'll be taking the clay to the foundry this week.

Distant War Cries Wax Works Feathers and Shield



Distant War Cries, was left at the foundry, Adnois Bronze, in Alpine Utah, be finished there by a hired artist. None of the feathers on the clay had been anything but sketches with no details. So today I made feathers for the clay out of wax and sent them out today to he foundry so they can add them to the clay. I'm very very particular about how my feathers look.
