After the Chase in bronze depicts the elegance and grace of the much loved whippet at rest. Nick has always been drawn to whippets for their beautiful form, loving nature and vulnerability. The whippet is a contradiction; a dog capable of explosive speed and agility with the ability to flip the switch and fall into a deep sleep, something all whippet owners will be able to relate to. After the Chase is released in a full size limited edition of just 12 pieces. A miniature version is also available.
Traditional bronze casting is a highly skilled and time consuming process. First Nick meticulously sculpts the animal in clay. A wax model is produced from the original sculpture and used to create a mould. A new wax model is required for each sculpture in the edition, as the wax is burned away in the casting process. Nick checks and refines each wax model personally. Large sculptures must be cast in sections and welded together. Once cast, the piece must be finished and patinated. Whilst expensive, bronze casting produces animal sculptures of wonderful depth and detail. These are true investment pieces to treasure and pass down through the generations.
