Re: Physical art objects or digital art? Their impact on us

Re: source for very large mold?

I forgot to mention, I need a stainless steel mold. It should be fairly easy to make, but if I find it already available, that's even better.

I'm looking for a very large mold, and before I have it custom made, does anyone have a source for large molds? I've tried the advertisers listed at the top here.

Re: How to you confront the "blank canvas"?

I have been thinking about this very subject, so thank you for bringing it up. Lately I am encouraging myself to develop the idea in my mind, and then think about how to do it. I find that if I become concerned, during the design process, with technique and issues related to the medium, it stunts my...
