A Rare Opportunity To Gain Hands-on Experience Creating A Production Quality Mold of Your Sculpture SUPERCHARGE YOUR ART BUSINESS! Multi-part brush-up molds capture fingerprint detail allowing you transform your one-of-a kind artwork into valuable limited series. Going far beyond YouTube videos, this intensive workshop will demystify the challenges of fine art moldmaking, empowering artists with the skills and knowledge needed to replicate their sculptures for casting in various materials like resin, cold-cast bronze, plaster, or even monument quality foundry bronze. Participants are guided through the various stages of moldmaking, selecting the appropriate materials, preparing the sculpture, planning parting lines, flanges, keys, vents, sprues, techniques and casting options. Using your own original sculpture and high quality materials you will create a thin polyurethane rubber mold supported by a hard shell suitable for creating multiple fine art castings.
