The Protected Child

The Protected Child This "unique" bronze is on permanant display in the lobby of the Juvenile Welfare building St. Petersburg, FL..The original model of the child's face was done in a water-based clay and then cast in wax. The "Wings" or "Flames" (open to interpretation) were made directly in wax and then melted out of a silicone mold and replaced with molten bronze. This peice is approximately three feet tall and can never be duplicated.
