Metal luster Glaze

I was asked about finishing sculptures to look like gold!

Well there are several  ways..Gold powders can be mixed in a medium such as shellac and applied, in the case of this sculpture by Maria a gold lustre glaze has been used..Quite striking!!
You could also apply gold leaf (gilding)..or spray gold. Cast bronze may be polished to a golden patina also.

Direct cement pics

Several of my students have recently expressed an interest in working direct  in cement fondu.
No need for moulds, quick easy and light! I will post picture of more works in progress soon!

Castle fine art have a great free wax offer..get your wax cast for £95.

Its a great opportunity to try lost wax Bronze casting. However as of today their web site seems to be down..too much demand perhaps.
Still worth trying while the offer lasts!  Here's their link.         www.­bronzefoundry.­co.­uk
