Priscilla Hann`s Personal statement
In the first meeting I would take photos, sketches etc and return home and start work. I would get to the nearly finished stage then spend another day or so with the animal for the finishing touches. Of course, if the commissions is abroad I would make the piece at home then send the photos of the finished model to the client. The photographic session would probably only take an hour or so. It is generally difficult to work from other peoples photos as they do not understand angles, proportions, positions etc, though I have had some success with the head alone, the animal in question had died.
I make the models in wax, plasticine or clay, dependent upon size and finish.
The piece is then presented to the client for their approval. some adjustments may be made at this stage. After the piece is accepted the client is committed to the final payment. It is then taken to the foundry where it will be cast in bronze or silver.
