“Dutchess” by Sheila and Ron Ruiz is a hand-crafted bronze sculpture created using the traditional lost-wax casting process, beginning with an original clay model. Ruiz sculpts every figure by hand, shaping the gesture and movement in clay before a mold is made for casting. Each bronze is individually poured, refined, chased, and finished with hand-applied patinas that bring out the sculpture’s elegant textures and vibrant personality.
This intricate process ensures that every piece carries its own subtle character—making each butterfly a unique work of fine art.
