A mould of plaster cast is made on the body of the model. The process takes about half an hour.

Most sculptures are made for people who want their own. But some are for sale (Click here). Of course you can also bring your model or come up with other suggestions. Almost anything is possible using this technique.

If you would like to see some real sculptures, mail me for an appointment. And some were and are on display:

What people said: 

• I love looking at the images on your page...bodycasting/lifecasting really fascinates me...
• It was a real pleasure to encounter your web site, unlike most work on the internet, you have created fine finished art.
• Thanks for putting up a great website, and for doing such nice lifecasting.
• Just a brief note to express how much I enjoy your work.
• Enjoyed your site! Very cool images!
• I have been interested in lifecasting for sometime and i have been delighted in our site which is so well done.
• I have been trying to do what you are doing, and am blown away by the exeptional quality you achieve.
• i haven't seen anyones body castings 'til yours that i felt were so professional.
• Wow! An impressive collection of artwork! I have always been intrigued by the artform of casting from live models, the immediacy of the model being present is much more enhanced than from a normal statue/sculpture and a lifecasting is quite more sensual!
  Have you done any full body works (that is the complete figure of the model, head to toe) to create a complete statue replica of the model? ala George Segal, or Duane Hanson? That's one of the things which is so eerie, yet so intriguing about lifecasting...the person is literally duplicated!
  I have promised myself that one day (some day!) I would learn the art of lifecasting, in the meantime I'll content myself with your page!
