There are artists who prefer the modelling of clay or wax to get their statue done. There is no restriction as how you get your sculpture done, either by carving wood or stone or any metal or by casting. There are sculpture that are made as a unique and one of a kind, therefore their price hikes up according to the artist’s reputation.
The other option is to use a mold for repetitions of the same piece and sell many copies.
