In November I received an email from John M. in California wanting to purchase a sculpture from the Framed series. After investigating that it was a genuine request and several email exchanges later, an order was placed for not one but three sculptures. Each frame had to be a different colour. I could not start until the new year but set to work in January. I had to cast the figures as well and did them in clear crystal to keep a certain unity in the group of sculptures.

Once done I had to work on the shipping and customs. The first package included one sculpture and the one following had the remaining two.

The packaging was done to provide maximum security for the work. Double boxing tends to make the package rather large but you have to do what you have to do…
