"Sisters" stands about two feet high and will be cast in bronze. It is being created for the garden of a private residence in Lake Forest, Illinois. Pictured at left is the final clay model just before heading to the foundry in March, 2000. How does a commission like this work? Use the links below to follow the progress of "Sisters" from its beginning as a mere gleam in one mother's eye. For more information on the process, see How to Commission a Sculpture. |
| Step 1. A mother of twin daughters wants to surprise her husband by commissioning a sculpture of them for their garden. She calls me, and I visit her home to discuss her ideas and possible locations. | |
| Step 2. I photograph her daughters and produce three 6-inch clay maquettes showing three different design concepts. | |
| Step 3. The client approves one of the 3 designs. We decide on a site. | |
| Step 4. I produce the full-sized sculpture in clay. |
