Classic
Casts for Drawing and Sculpting
Artists and art students now have the opportunity to
work with museum quality plaster casts from the renowned Giust
Gallery of Woburn, Massachusetts.
Casts have long been used to train students to
develop the ability to see form as it occurs in nature.
Some people have a natural ability to see form and record it
accurately either in sketching, painting or sculpture, others need more
training. However, all need
the practice and discipline of studying natural form.
Cast drawing encourages a three dimensional understanding of form
as opposed to working from a two dimensional subject.
The result is a deeper and more accurate understanding of natural
form with exact proportions and subtleties that can also translate into a
deeper understanding of any subject and results in drawings that are more
true to life.
Giust Gallery,
recognized as the most authentic classical replica piece mold studio in
the U.S., uses time honored molding and hand casting techniques.
The quality of these casts makes them ideal for students.
Drawing from casts' requires the student to place
strong emphasis on accurate observation of proportion, shape, and tonal
value of an object exactly as it appears to the artist/student on a one
to one scale.
Each high quality cast is individually hand made
in the United States by skilled artisans with professional insight and
attention to detail. Do not
settle for inferior casts from poor molds.
A cast from Giust Gallery will always be a welcome
addition to your studio or home.
