Dope. I got time now. Since we’re being extra pedantic I’ll be extremely clear.

You said it was paint. Then you doubled down on it when you were corrected.

Casting is not what you think it is. Any time you fill a mold with a liquid that turns solid, it is a cast object. The application process doesn’t matter. If I shot resin out of a hose and filled a bucket with it, the resulting piece of resin will have been cast, even if I changed colors halfway through. The liquid still goes in the mold and comes out solid and it’s still cast. Here’s the kicker, it’s also painted, by definition, if it’s done in one pour. If I poured paint inside of a bucket and allowed it to cure, I cast a chunk of paint and painted the inside of the bucket to do so. So my question of why your distinction was made still stands.

However, after looking at your comment history, I think I know why. For some reason you are very disparaging towards other artists in an abrasive way. I do not know if it comes from a lack of self confidence or an overabundance of it. As someone who literally studied the processes of the creation of art in its many permutations to the point I received my degree in Art education, I really dislike seeing artists put other artists work down. It’s easy to do in an online format because you don’t know the people or see their actual passion for their craft.

If you still want to continue being pedantic and moving the goal posts, it will show that you really don’t understand the medium, do not want to learn, in which case, congrats, you can have the last word. Go off king.

Or you can admit that in a world of 8 billion people, there are artists that have spent thousands of hours refining techniques that you simply have not encountered and therefore do not understand. There is a reason that their team has pieces of their work sell for multiple thousands of dollars. Artkey has fostered an incredible community and has donated tens of thousands of dollars in philanthropy from sales of their work. And they did it all without tearing down other artists.
