Working on Sculptures for the TOAE




The fashion show last week was a great success and now I am working on waxes for the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition. I will be taking small bronze sculptures that I have yet to cast. I am getting them sprued today and hopefully will cast tomorrow afternoon. The picture here is of a bird. She is standing on her head and the red lines are red sprue wax. They are used to get the molten bronze to the body as quick as possible because the metal cools and solidifies extremely fast. I still have some tops and dresses left after the show and I have set them up in our shop. The cotton knit tops are $49, solid colour dresses with patch on the back are $90 and the striped dresses are $140. The dupioni silk skirts range from $80 to $140.
