Oxidation [With Face Paint]
Oxidation is the process by which a statue is given an artificial oxidation using chemicals. This process is especially good for people who do not like the shiny gold finish in the statue or glossy finish. This adds a natural oxidation patina to the statue, hence the color is permanent and will not ware off easily.
With Face Paint: Here the statue's face is painted with Gold. Traditionally it is used to give more definition to the statue.

Hence Mr. Sanu Shakya has mastered the art of making copper statues look and feel like bronze. This is his secret process where he will use all organic meterial to get this patina. This is even more permanent than the oxidation. He calls it Sweat Antique [Cha Ti ,Pula]. But we like to call it bronze finishing.
