After months of trying different techniques, Isabel perfected the system for producing her sculptures. In order to resemble the bronze and green shades of Victorian sculpture, she used dyes to make the cast sculpture a brown, or bronze color. She developed the technique of "greening' by mixing blue and green dyes with water and fine white powdered cement to make a mixture that could be applied with brushes and rubbed off to reveal the color of the brown cast surface. Isabel Bloom sculptures are easily recognizable. Their color, simple style, and softened features set them apart from other artists.
