Sweet Dreams in bronze depicts the ever popular whippet sleeping after a busy day of activity, paws exposed, ears flopped, wrapped in the security of sleep. People have always loved whippets for their beautiful elegant shape, loving nature and gentle temperament. At Rest 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.
