Thanks Jimmie and Carlos,
Did I mention this is an open edition and castings are available?

I would have gone with a bone white. I don't think it needs color. The met sells a reproduction of the pieta head by Michaelangelo that's bone white and it's very elegant. As a painter that deals with color I use color where it's needed and never for it's own sake. I think you don't need it. Just my two cents worth.

Right you are Marvin,
But here, I am not starting with a white canvas, I am starting with a bronze one and making it white is just another color option for me. I had it white at one point, but did not like it with the bronze highlights. I am planning on casting the third one so that it comes out of the mold white, and I will just add a bone white wax to give it luster. I agree that white would be the most elegant finish here, so thanks for reinforcing that notion.
