Jan-Michelle Sawyer believes that clear and open communication is the foundation for a successful working relationship between herself and the client.
Every care is made to work collaboratively with the client to make sure that their desires and expectations are realistically met.
A sculpture can be created from photographs or by live sittings or both. Great care is taken to capture the essence of the subject to the satisfaction of the client.
“Ambiguity seems to engage the brain more intensely, something that the portrait sculptor wants to strive for when creating a portrait of someone. To overwork sculpture by intensely focusing on exactness, the sculptor robs the viewer and herself of the experience to interpret the work as they both see fit. ”
