Portrait Comte de LAVALETTE (2020) Sculpture by Atelier Mélyne Sculpture

Passionate about sculpture for more than 25 years, self-taught, I discovered modeling with small salt paste figurines, then very quickly I worked clay.

I then tested the direct cutting of wood and stone, then I discovered the moulding, much less easy than it seems, but which allows the printing of a work in different materials, including bronze.

Plaster is also a rather surprising material, which can be worked in direct pruning, modelling, casting and allows to make patinas imitating almost all materials such as iron, wood, marble, even rust…

Recently I discovered epoxy resin, a very interesting but very "capricious" material that requires adequate equipment.

Sculpture is an "exciting passion", the possibilities are so vast, inexhaustible source of inspiration of knowledge both technically and historically.

My greatest reward for all these years of work is

the realization of one of my works in Bronze exhibited in a public place.
