Look below the surface is the message you find in Jop’s sculptures

For Jop van Driel every sculpture starts in wood. Some sculptures are also cast in bronze, but always in a limited edition. Each edition is described at the notary and has a certificate. This gives collectors the guarantee that no more sculptures will be cast than the specified number.

Wooden sculptures are always one of a kind. A sculpture is created by processing a piece of wood. Each is a unique design, either tailored to the wishes and story of the client or made from inspiration.
