This piece is completed work, shown here as a record of what leaves the studio. To talk about a piece or a restoration, use the commissions page.
A 120 cm statue restored for a private client: brown habit, white Carmelite cloak and gold arabesques running down the front.
The red and yellow roses were remade one by one. The face was given a soft, almost porcelain finish — it is the work in which the painting of the face shows most.

Traditional brushwork, colour over colour, with the flesh tones worked by hand.
Every piece is painted by hand. Small variations in colour between one statue and the next are not a flaw: they are the signature of handwork.
