Sight-Size /sait-saiz/ n. An arrangement of the artist, their artwork and subject that allows the artist to see the artwork and subject in a one-to-one relationship. It is only through the Sight-Size arrangement that the visual comparison is direct. Sight-Size can be life-size, smaller than life-size, or larger than life-size.Learning how to accurately see, as well as draw, is best done through Sight-Size cast drawing. Ateliers exist worldwide to help you do that. But what if you cannot afford atelier training, or there is not an atelier nearby? Or, perhaps you are already in an atelier and would like to supplement that training?Contained within The Sight-Size Cast is everything you ever wanted to know about Sight-Size cast drawing and painting, impressionistic seeing, and the ways in which many of the ateliers that stem from R. H. Ives Gammell and Richard Lack teach their students.Despite its title, The Sight-Size Cast is as much about learning to see objectively as it is about cast drawing and painting specifically. Using plaster casts in Sight-Size is simply the best means to an end, which is accurate sight.The first part of The Sight-Size Cast is focused on the definitions, history, and theories of Sight-Size. These topics will provide you with a basis for the second and third parts of the book, which are all about action. As such, part two is directly focused on learning to see through Sight-Size cast drawing and part three on Sight-Size cast painting. These teachings will be of immense use to you, whether you are attending an atelier, academy, or are learning on your own.Would you like to read a free chapter of The Sight-Size Cast?
