Amphitrite
"As you can see the bronze making process is a technique I use consistently. Depending on the type of sculpture, the amount of time, energy and materials I use will vary. For this specific piece, Amphitrite took longer than other projects I have worked on in the past years due to the massive structural composition. The estimated time of this specific artwork took me 26 years, and by the looks of it was completely worth all that hard work. Most people might ask what the story behind this piece is. Well, to sum it up, most of you know the story behind Aphrodite; she was formed out of the sea. This piece is the beginning of her creation. You can start to see how her left leg, along with her pelvis is being formed."
