captions[18] = "19. A sculpture is placed in the sand blaster to prepare the surface for application of a patina. This slightly pits the surface and removes any hand oils.";
captions[19] = "20. A sculpture is being heated in preparation for the application of a patina (chemicals applied hot or cold that change the color of the bronze).";
captions[20] = "21. A slab of onyx designed for each separate piece of sculpture is marked from a pattern and is ready to be cut and polished for the base.";
captions[21] = "22. Holes are drilled in the bottom of a sculpture for the bolts to fasten it to the base.";
captions[22] = "23. Holes to receive the bolts are drilled into the base with a drill press.";
