Fighting Marlin with Tackle

This Marlin Sculpture is made using the hot Patina Technique. The same method used in works found in the finest art museums. The Patina Artists first apply a cold chemical patina to the lost wax cast marine life sculpture. Artists then use blow torches to heat the brass sculpture to upwards of 250-degrees. While the metal is hot proprietary formulations of chemical are applied using various techniques section by section one layer at a time. Many layers and several hours later the Marine Life Sculpture is allowed to cool and several layers of a special wax are applied. The result is a spectacular deep and transparent finish with complex subtleties that no other finishing method can achieve. Because every piece is finished individually by hand no two pieces are ever exactly alike. This finished Marlin Statue is truly handmade heirloom to be cherished for generations and admired by all.
