"I have deep-seated
feelings about keeping the tradition in my work. All my designs and
sculpting are done by hand, with pride. The plaster techniques I use
to cast have been employed by master sculptors for countless
generations." |

Shown below is an
example of the portrait process, from photograph to working drawing,
to finished plaster model, to the struck medal.
Portrait Process, example of the detailed process that is
utilized when I create a master model. The subject is Chester L.
Krause, founder of Krause Publications, a much admired, innovative
pioneer in the Numismatic Field.
First, I begin with one photograph provided by the customer.

From
the photograph, I create a working drawing that will be transferred
to the negative plaster mold.

Once
the sketch is transferred onto the plaster, I sculpt the portrait
negative into the plaster mold. Then a master cast is poured into
the negative, and separated when hardened. This is the final cast
with only minor detail work left to be completed.
