How is a Wax Sculpture Made?
Sculptures made in any medium have beauty of their own. Wax sculpture is no exception- it is beautiful too! Wax sculpture, in fact, carries more than one meaning with it. As the name suggests, a wax sculpture is a sculpture made in wax- the finished figures in beeswax, the same material which is used for making candles. These figures in beeswax are made by modeling or molding. Apart from finished sculptures, sometimes wax figures are also used as a form for casting metal or creating preliminary models, such as for making a bronze sculpture.
