From Wax Sculpting to Bronze Casting

UPCOMING DEMO

by Chuck Kidwell

While hiking in the Smokey Mountains as a young man, Chuck visited a gallery of fine woodcarving in Gatlinburg,TN.

He was so stirred that he went out and bought 3 carving tools, cut down a tree and taught himself
to carve!
Through his work at Inferno Art Foundry http://infernoartfoundry.com in Union City he has learned to scuplt in clay and wax and create bronze castings through the traditional "Lost Wax" process. Chuck has
created well researched historical figures.

He has also enjoyed creating a delightful animated series of the backyard adventures of Traveler and Wee... mouse and his friend. 

 

 

Beautiful portraits in wood, bronze or cold cast available:

 

Come and see and hear a master craftsman! 

"A stitch in time..."

We have received a trustworthy compliment:
" You (Fine Lines), are far and above better than ANY shop in Atlanta for stretching my needlework"

WOW! We like hearing that!
Cecelia, the fine designer is most assuredly also a fine craftswoman to complement your fine stitchery workmanship.

THE STRETCHING PROCESS

The needlework is wrapped around acid free foam core and pinned along the edged to keep it smooth and straight.

 

 

SINK MOUNT   The stretched work is mounted on a mat board with foam core built up around it.

 

NO TAPES/ADHESIVES are applied keeping the final project completely archival (acid free or neutral pH)

Here are few examples:

 

 

Come trust us with your fine stitchery workmanship.
