Mr. Pannage employed the lost-wax casting method. a method that is at least 6500 years old.
He used the foundry of Vladimir Alvarado in Juarez, Mexico.
I own five sculptures created by Mr. Pannage when he and his wife were living in El Paso.

Hello Ms.Stanfield,
I knew Mr Pannage in El Paso in the 1970’s. he and wife were living there. They were friends of the parents of one of my high school classmates, Marshall Meece, I believe his name was.
The photo of Mr. Pannage, surrounded by examples of his sculpture, may have been taken in Madeline Park, during the Winter months.
I own five of Mr. Pannage’s sculptures. when I last spoke with him, Chief Joseph was only an idea. I am happy to see it as a finished masterpiece. Chief Joseph would have been out of my price range in the 1970’s.
I was aware the Mr. Pannage was from Great Falls as was Charles Russell.
Last evening 08142023 there was new item about Charles Russell and Mr Pannage came to mind.

I am so very glad I came across this article!! We recently inherited 3 beautiful bronze pieces marked CM Pannage and I was dying to find out who the artist was and find out some history behind the pieces!! Love this story! I wish I knew the story behind how our relatives came to own the pieces. I would love to learn as much as I can about the three beautiful pieces we now own. Any help you could give me is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for the story about your Papa.
Years ago I read an African proverb that says “The best way to sell your goods is to cry them through the streets.”

This is so true!! Every year our art department participates in Open Studios and I’m always amazed when the students say they won’t participate because they have an Etsy shop, etc. Over the last two years, I’ve worked with the staff to allow me to come in and talk about participating and getting your art in front of people, to learn how to talk about art to customers (its very different from the art critiques in class!) and how much people buy art when it has a personal connection.
Can I link to this post from our Foothill Art Society page?

Laura: I’m so happy this brought back fond memories to you. And I hope you follow through on that “sharing” piece.
