Mary Buckman Sculpture

It is a wonderful work of art!

My granddaughter visiting my Frankie Laine sculpture last night in Little Italy, San Diego. He was installed last summer when everything was shut down. So nice to see people out and enjoying the restaurants!

My student is digging out excess weight of the water-based clay, this keeps the sculpture from collapsing because there is no internal armature. Later we will patch it up and continue sculpting.

A relief portrait in clay I did a few years ago. I wish the quality of the picture was better.

It’s hard to believe that a year ago at this time, I was working in my studio on a life size portrait of Frankie Laine! Now,I have lost my studio because of the virus shutdown and I can no longer teach my life Sculpture classes! So much can happen in one year! I miss my little studio and my students plus all of the wonderful models!

Found this photo someone took of these cute kids standing next to my bronze Reading Girl at the Carmel Valley Library. This was one of my first public art commissions and my favorite.

This is amazing!

Installation day for my Frankie Laine sculpture. Dave Scott with KUSI was there, so nice to meet him, I’m a big fan. The guy with the mask is Tony Enyedy, my husband and big helper in many ways!

Not a great photo, all I have right now. Frankie has been installed.Heritage Bronze Foundry did a great job!
