The other kind of clay

This piece was made out of Chavant oil clay. This sculpture is made to be cast into bronze. It's title is "Flight" and represents man escaping earth's limitations.

Oil clay doesn't dry out when exposed to the air like water clay, though it can't be fired and made permanent. A rubber mold will be made and sent to
the foundry where it will be cast in bronze.
