## About From Clay to Creation: Our Process

Every project we take on, whether a life-size statue or a mural, begins with us mixing clay by foot to get the consistency just right. This is where your idea takes physical form. Before we ever touch a mold or fiberglass, we walk you through the raw clay model. You get to see the proportions and facial likeness in person or via video, and we make changes right then and there. It is the only way to ensure the final piece feels exactly like what you imagined.

### The Making of a Masterpiece
We do not believe in rushed art. Our process is hands-on from start to finish, and we think it is important for you to know exactly how your investment is being built.

#### Step 1: The Clay Foundation
Everything starts with clay. We source specific quality clay, and our team manually kneads it to ensure there are no air pockets or inconsistencies. We hand-sculpt the details, focusing on anatomy and expression. For custom portraits or memorials, this is the most critical stage. We invite you to be part of this phase because a tweak in clay is easy, but a change in fiberglass is a nightmare.

#### Step 2: Mold Making and Casting
Once the clay model is approved, we create a specialized mold. We use high-quality silicone or plaster, depending on the complexity of the design. Then comes the Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) casting. We use layers of fiberglass and resin to build a shell that is both lightweight and incredibly tough. This is how we ensure our work survives both Delhi summers and monsoon rains.

#### Step 3: Finishing and Installation
After the cast sets, we grind, sand, and smooth the surface. We do not just paint it; we treat the surface with automotive-grade PU paints to prevent fading. Whether you want a metallic bronze finish for an army memorial or a vibrant, realistic look for a garden statue, we handle the final layering in-house.

#### Why This Matters
Our studio in Sector 17, Gurugram is always open for clients to visit. We believe in total transparency. If you are commissioning a project, you should see the armature and the texture work before it is locked into fiberglass. That is the ArtHerwa difference.
