The Process by Krisnick Creator Tom Panetta: "I mix the materials for the sculptures myself. It is a combination of clay, plaster and paper pulp. After I sculpt, I let them dry. If I need to make any adjustments I carve or sand the piece; then I hand paint each one. I mix colors, continuously combining hues until I get the exact color I’m looking for. Then I use an oil base stain to give it an antique look.Next, I embellish it. I either use an adhesive, glue, drill, or I’ll hand tie it with twine. Finally, I put it through an aging process. I have my own 5 step aging process to make it look like it’s been around for 100 years. My sculptures are made to be heirlooms to be passed down for years to come."
