Whilst I was studying sculpture at The Florence Academy of Art in 2015 I spent the weekends over one term during my second year learning how to carve marble in the traditional ‘pointing’ method under the guidance of master stone carver Jason Arkles.

Sculptures are generally cast in bronze in a limited number of editions. The maximum number of editions allowed varies between countries but is very rarely more than ten. Editions are signed by the artist and has the edition number cast in the bronze. They always come with a Certificate of Authenticity, they last for millennia and represents a good investment.
An Artist Proof (AP) is signed by the artist, but is not part of an edition and does not come with a Certificate of Authenticity. Artists are allowed three APs. Traditionally an Artist Proof is made in plaster, but in recent decades resin has taken over. Whether in plaster or resin, an Artist Proof should not be considered a financial investment as it holds little to no resale value.
