THE art of bronze casting was shared at a Hereford creative hub.
Tim Rawlins is based at Hereford Make in Harrow Road, off Whitecross Road, in Hereford and he is running a course in bronze casting.
There are 12 people on the course at the artists' studios and there is a waiting list for the next one.
The photos show bronze ingot which has been placed in a furnace and heated to extremely high temperatures. It can then be poured into a mold to create a sculpture.
