Synopsis

After cast drawing, cast painting is the next step for the student at many classical art ateliers. Cast Painting Using the Sight-Size Approach teaches you Sight-Size cast painting as a means to help you learn how to see and paint. Traditionally taught in classical art ateliers, Sight-Size is an approach to drawing and painting from life. It is an arrangement of the artist, the easel, and the subject that allows the artist to see the subject and artwork visually one-to-one.
