Commission a Sculpture that Inspires and Endures

The Commission Process: From Idea to Installation

Commissioning a sculpture is a highly collaborative and rewarding journey. With over 30 years of experience, Jack creates bespoke artworks that seamlessly fuse traditional foundry techniques with cutting edge digital innovation.

Here is what you can expect when commissioning a unique piece.

The Direct from Studio Advantage

Working directly with an independent artist provides a level of intimacy, quality control and value that traditional gallery models can not match.

By operating exclusively on a direct to collector commission basis, we completely eliminate commercial gallery markups, allowing your investment to go directly into the scale, materials, and craftsmanship of the artwork.

Every stage of production is supervised or executed personally by Jack within his North Norfolk studio and private foundry. From initial concept to the final pour, the work never leaves the artist's hands.

We bridge the gap between historic craftsmanship and modern technology, utilising digital sculpting tools, like 3D scanning and 3d printing for direct investment casting.

To provide future collectors with a permanent record of provenance, all self-produced works bear the foundry stamp insigne, the artist’s signature, a unique authentication number and a "PU 1/1" hallmark signifying a completely unique, un-editioned piece of art.

Consultation & Concept Development

The journey begins with a conversation. We discuss your creative vision, preferred aesthetics, and the specific site for the artwork.

Jack develops preliminary ideas through detailed sketches or digital design renderings.

Your feedback is essential. We adjust the design until it perfectly aligns with your brief and the intended environment.

Materials, Budget, & Agreement

We recommend materials tailored to your aesthetic and environmental needs, whether that is the warmth of silicon bronze or the sleek resilience of marine-grade stainless steel.

You will receive a detailed estimate outlining materials, fabrication, shipping and installation.

A clear agreement maps out the project scope, timeline, and milestone based payment schedule. Work commences upon receipt of an initial deposit.

Creation, Craftsmanship, & Patina

The fabrication process begins, blending lost-wax casting and modern structural engineering.

You will receive regular photo updates as the sculpture takes physical form in the workshop.

Patination is a deeply collaborative stage. Jack expertly applies distinct chemical treatments, such as layered iron and copper nitrates to achieve a bespoke, complex surface texture and colour tailored entirely to your vision.

Delivery, Installation, & Aftercare

Once complete and hallmarked, your artwork is ready for its final location.

Sculptures are packed in custom built wooden crates and shipped via specialist art couriers.

For monumental or complex wall mounted works, we coordinate with structural engineers and professional installers to ensure flawless, secure placement.

We provide comprehensive maintenance guidelines and remain available for any future conservation advice, ensuring your sculpture endures for generations.

How to Begin

We invite private clients, landscape architects, and design consultants to reach out directly. Because the creative fee is determined on a per-piece basis, we can tailor a proposal that specifically aligns with your site and structural requirements..
