Body Casting is another<br />
technique and medium which<br />
I learned the basics from Willa<br />
Shalit, who did a number of<br />
casts of well-known celebrities<br />
and athletes<br />
more about that when<br />
body casting is featured in<br />
the Gallery. Body casting is<br />
done with alginate a nontoxic<br />
substance made from<br />
seaweed. Dentists use this to<br />
make<br />
impressions of teeth for partials<br />
or dentures. The same process<br />
is used in body casting. The<br />
alginate is placed on the body<br />
in the area to be reproduced.<br />
The liquid<br />
alginate turns into a<br />
rubbery substance in<br />
about 10 minutes. This<br />
forms the mold for the cast. The cast is made from a plater acrylic material<br />
that sets permanently. The sample of a body cast here is of a male torso<br />
chest with arms wrapped around titled, “Touch” A cast can be made from<br />
your body or body area, or someone who<br />
models for the cast. I work with all of these mediums. Completed works are<br />
available as originals or prints Full body paintings or drawings or the same of<br />
pets can be consigned. Body casts are also available to be created from your<br />
desired body area to be sculptured.<br />
I work with all of the media described. Completed works are available for<br />
purchase along with consigned original portraits, full body compositions, and body<br />
casts. If you are interested in having any of these works for yourself or as a gift<br />
please contact me at adamsartexpose@gmail.com<br />
More samples of my work will be in future Virtual Gallerys in the Desert Daily Guide.<br />
Hope you enjoy, Thank you.<br />
