Restoration

My background in the methods and materials common to sculpture has led to commissioned restoration projects. My interest here lies in the historical perspective gained in research, the pleasure of problem solving on behalf of my clients, and the personal reward of knowing I have done something significant for a community or individual. I strive to offer reasonable and cost effective solutions to repair and rehabilitation.

Restorations may require significant repair, and often the replacement of missing parts. This involves detailed modeling, mold making, and casting, as well as a careful assembly of the final piece.
