The creative process
Behind the Scenes
A glimpse into the studio — from raw plaster to finished sculpture. Every piece is a meditation, a transformation, a story told through hands and materials.
Watch the process
From raw plaster to finished art.
These studio clips capture the intimate, hands-on process behind each sculpture.
Shaping the Bust
Anne smooths and shapes the raw plaster form by hand, using sandpaper to refine the surface.
Moulding the Form
Hands work the wet plaster, building up layers and sculpting the bust's contours.
Seam & Detail Work
Precision work on the seams and joins of the plaster cast, blending and smoothing connections.
Handling & Assembly
Carefully lifting and positioning the plaster forms on the work frame — every movement requires patience.
Fine Detail Painting
Using a fine brush to apply gold and metallic pigments along the edges and contours.
The Paint Pour
The most dramatic moment — vibrant acrylic paints poured freely over the bust, creating bold colour compositions.
The four stages
How a sculpture is born.
The Mould
Each bust begins as a hand-moulded plaster form. Anne shapes the raw material by hand, allowing intentional imperfections that give each piece its unique character.
The Vision
Before any embellishment begins, Anne envisions the final piece — the colours, the materials, the story it will tell.
The Embellishment
Swarovski stones, pyrite, amethysts, gold and silver plating, rhinestones, glass, natural stones, mother-of-pearl — each element placed by hand with meditative precision.
The Finish
Layers of acrylic, pouring techniques, and epoxy seal the work. The final piece gleams with an inner light — a testament to transformation.
The palette
Where plaster meets precious.
Anne works with an extraordinary range of materials — from raw plaster and pigments to Swarovski crystals, precious metals, and natural stones.
