A bust could be made to remember a loved one and offers a tactile experience that no other form of representation art can.
Busts are ideally made from real life but can also be made from suitable photographs. On commissioning a bust you will be provided with information on what photos are needed.
The standard fee for creation of a life size clay bust is $4000.
There is a non refundable deposit of 30% when a bust is commissioned.
To commission a bust please email us through the contact page on this site and we will discuss your individual requirements.
