Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

This painting is about the fish that like to clean toes. She is slightly sqeamish about things tickling her under the water but the other people are unfazed and look on casually. The sun streams into the water giving that slightly ghostly colouring to everything below the water line. [...]

Angela Brittain, a contemporary British artist, finds fascination in people, observing the subtle shifts in mood, vulnerability, and unspoken communication expressed through body language. The humanness revealed in reflective moments or collaborative efforts serves as a poignant inspiration for her artistic endeavors. In Angela's creative process, lines of emotions and trails of togetherness converge, forming a composition both in her mind and on the canvas.

Each of Angela's works is an exploration of achieving the "rightness," a quest to solve complex, often self-imposed compositional challenges. Beneath the surface, there is a palpable tension that adds depth to her creations. Her preferred mediums are acrylics and oils, applied to board or canvas to bring her artistic visions to life.

Being an artist, Angela acknowledges the rollercoaster of emotions, experiencing moments of great happiness interwoven with periods of despair and self-doubt—a common trait among artists. To navigate these fluctuations, she engages in activities outside of her art, attending exhibitions, going on bike rides, or immersing herself in pursuits that offer respite from self-criticism and maintain a balanced perspective on her artistic endeavors.

Angela Brittain holds the distinction of being an elected member of the Society of Women Artists (SWA). Her artworks grace exhibitions in London with the Society of Women Artists, the Russell Gallery, and through her membership in the United Society of Artists. In the South of England, she exhibits as an elected member of the West Sussex Art Society and participates in Open Studios. Notable solo exhibitions include showcases at the Horsham Gallery in 2011 and the Horsham Museum and Art Gallery in 2013. Angela's artistic journey continues to unfold as she navigates the complexities of human connection and translates these nuances onto the canvas.
