Nestled in the Lost Pines of Central Texas, Deep in the Heart Art Foundry was established in 1980 in the heart of downtown Bastrop. Over the ensuing years, we earned recognition as a small facility with excellent craftsmanship and a friendly staff. In 1999 after the foundry was purchased by Heart of Texas Art Group, Inc., we began a period of tremendous expansion, beginning with the move to a larger facility on a beautiful 4-acre tract of land in the Bastrop Industrial Park in 2002. Since that time, we have continued to grow, and now encompass more than 22,000 square feet of production space and offer services that range from conception to installation.
In 2009, the foundry added a 3D laser scanner and 4-axis CNC mill to our sculpting arsenal, providing our clients with a fast, accurate, and inexpensive way to create monumental sculpture. Shortly thereafter, we incorporated our first of three 3D printers, which allowed us the ability to print digital files in a directly castable material-essentially skipping several steps of the traditional bronze casting process-and saving our clients time and money. To date, Deep in the Heart remains one of the only foundries in the United States to offer these services completely in-house.
Our casting services range from jewelry scale to monumental. We cast primarily in 873 silicon bronze and 316L stainless steel, but also offer various other specialty alloys and precious metals. In addition, we are proud to offer assistance in project management, site design, engineering, delivery and installation, and long-term maintenance, repair and restoration.

A prototype is "an early sample or model built to test a concept or process or to act as a thing to be replicated or learned from." In the context of high-end collectibles, the finished product is usually the 2nd or 3rd generation replication of the prototype. Within the molding process, the finest details on the sculpt are often lost, leaving the collector with a mere shadow of the initial sculpt.
PrototypeZ Studio aims to revolutionize the industry by allowing collectors to purchase prototype quality high-end collectibles. Our goal is to provide collectors the opportunity to own a carbon copy of the original sculpt down to every detail. At the hands of master sculptor, Erick Sosa, collectors will be able to see the passion and attention-to-detail that Erick has for this art form. He will add his own dynamic style on well-known characters as well as original concepts.
In this competitive industry where quantity sells at the expense of quality, PrototypeZ Studio vows to keep quality at the forefront and collectors at its core.
