Lost New York City

Article in the NY Times;

TIMES

Thank you for browsing my sculpture collection, many satisfied clients have discovered this unique line of architectural reproductions and have chosen to decorate their homes and gardens with them.

In addition to the growing clientele, I have also been engaged to create new custom sculptures for restoration and replacement work, one project was replacing corbels on an 1880 townhouse in a historic district. The story and photos are here: Corbel project photos

I also now have a 24 image slide show showing some types and styles of tenements, original ornaments and how they were used, and some sample of my own work; Slide show

The casting studio

Modelling studio still being worked on, with a 14 foot cathedral ceiling, 2 windows, large skylight,
heavy commercial type floor designed to hold extreme loads- like the one ton of boxed clay in the corner not visible in these photos.
A half ton chain hoist also hangs from the ceiling almost out of view. A secondary computer system
and 17" monitor are also in the room to display photos on and use during modelling;

Heavy steel and plank modelling table, a 150# work in progress clay model of a large 30" diameter multi-piece wolf head is on the easel. Models are normally completely wrapped in plastic to keep the clay moist during the work process. Reference photos, and a heavy duty wheeled rotating modelling stand can also be seen on the right;

Here is a 90 second or so clip made in the studio showing the size scale with some finishing work on a large clay model, there is no audio;

See my guide on Brownstone to explain this image of a fraudulently advertised item;\
