In all my pieces, I use the ancient technique of modeling the originals with beeswax mixed with colophony, which allows me to achieve truly exceptional precision in detail. I cast the originals immediately and then transfer them directly to the necessary male and female molds. The texture, the imprint of the original wax used, can be seen in the finished bronze pieces. Sometimes, with amazement, I discover my fingerprint in the bronze. All my sculptures are unique pieces, without copies or series. This technique, in addition to achieving a subtle imprint, eliminates the need for intermediate molds that distort the result.
