Wayne Salge uses a traditional process to create his bronze sculptures, a process that has been used since the third millennium. This method is also called, cire-perdue, a method of metal casting in which a molten metal is poured into a mold that has been created by means of a wax model or form.  Once the form is made, the wax model is melted and drained away.  A hollow core can be effected by the introduction of a heat-proof core that prevents molten metal from totally filling the mold.  Please join us as we explore and learn about this ancient process and how Wayne Salge creates his award-winning bronzes.    Salge "Marketable"  24 H x 8.5 W x 9.5 D, Bronze, Edition of 12 Salge "Savannah" 27H x 14W x 10D, Bronze, Ed of 12 Saks Galleries Cherry Creek   Oldest Fine Art Gallery in Colorado   Celebrating Our 50th Anniversary of Living Artfully 3019 East 2nd Avenue Denver, Colorado 80206 303.333.4144 www.saksgalleries.com    Always Available by Special Appointment Call 303.333.4144 or Email info@saksgalleries.com   Hours: Tuesday - Friday 10:am - 5:pm    Saturday 10:am - 4:pm     Salge "Sonora" 24.5 H x 17 W x 14D Bronze, Ed of 12
