Portrait Sculptures in Plasticine


Please browse through my gallery of works in plasticine. Plasticine is my modelling material which is applied over a supporting armature.

It is not a permanent medium as a finished sculpture as in the case of bronze or plaster.

Plasticine is a modelling material much like clay but does not dry out, staying malleable and is used repeatedly.

A silicone rubber mold supported by a reinforced plaster mold is applied to the plasticine work, creating a negative mother mold. From the negative mold, a positive duplicate of the original plasticine sculpture is created in wax as in the case of casting to bronze, or a positive duplicate in plaster in the case of casting to plaster.

Please refer to 'Education' to learn more about the "lost wax" process or Contact HOLTKAMP Fine Art Bronze.
