How can I care for my Gillie and Marc bronze sculpture?
Your bronze sculpture will have come with a “how to care for your bronze” instructional sheet with all the best advice on keeping your bronze in the best shape. If you have lost this or didn’t receive it, please get in touch with us and we can send you another! For our full maintenance and care guide, click HERE.

How do I look after my painting?
Place the painting in a location with a consistent temperature and ensure it isn’t positioned too closely to lighting. Use LED lights if you can—they do not produce heat or UV rays which can ultimately effect the colour and longevity of your painting. If handling the artwork, hold it from the edge, hanging wire, or stretch‑bar and wear gloves. Use a microfibre cloth to lightly dust the painting, please do not use solvents. For our full maintenance and care guide, click HERE.

How do I care for gold leaf paintings?
Gold leaf is gold that has been hammered and flattened to make a thin, delicate foil. Due to the delicate nature of this material, gold leaf must be carefully handled. When installing your gold leaf painting you must wear plain cotton gloves to avoid transferring fingerprints or scratches onto the surface.

There are fingerprints on my gold leaf painting, what can I do?
The best method to remove fingerprint stains from delicate gold leaf is with a very soft bristled kabuki make up brush. Gently brush the mark with a soft swirling motion and gradually you will see the stain dissipate. 

My sculpture has a few imperfections, is this normal?
All Gillie and Marc artworks are hand-crafted, which means each piece will be unique in its own right. That means that there might be a few bits that don’t necessarily look exactly the same as they did in the picture. This just shows that this is not mass-produced and instead, made with love. That’s what makes these works so beautiful and special!

I hear something rattling inside my bronze sculpture, what is it?
The ‘rattling’ is just from some small, loose bronze that may have been stuck to the inside wall during the creation process. This is completely normal and will not effect the integrity of the sculpture.

My Resin/Fibreglass sculpture has been damaged at home and a piece has broken off. What do I do?
The recommended way to repair resin is using a Megapoxy adhesive. This does proficient in fixing broken fibreglass sculptures. For smaller surfaces, a premium quality super glue is very effective. If the breaks are clean they can be re-attached almost seamlessly. If required, a small amount of high gloss enamel paint can be used as a touch up.

There seems to be a lot of packaging used to ship my sculpture. Is this necessary?
We spend a lot of time packaging to ensure your artwork gets to you in one piece. We need to cushion it well with lots of packaging materials otherwise it can get damaged in the postal process.  If you cannot re-use the packaging that ensured the safety of your sculpture, you are more than welcome to send the packaging back for us to reuse. We are always looking for ways to improve our environmental impact and packaging is one area where we are looking for solutions to improve.
