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.

Pit Bulls have been given a bad reputation because this is one of the number one breeds used for dog fighting, so when thinking of a Pit, people are often fearful. It's sad really, because like any other dog, when trained properly, they are a wonderful dog breed. Most I know are lovable and loving, so it breaks my heart when the breed is drastically misunderstood.
I created this sculpture for this big, dependable breed and the owners who love and appreciate them for what they really are; a big bundle of goofy fun! I hand molded him using high fire ceramics and coated him with mosaics of glass beads. I added a metal tag to his collar that reads, "Believe", and finished him off with gold toned balls at the tips of his wire whiskers.

As with all my creations, Chopper is a handmade, signed, one-of-a-kind sculpture that can be copied, but not duplicated. Each piece is lovingly hand formed, mosaics pieces are individually hand-cut, meticulously arranged, and the glazes are applied with three to six coats to achieve the best color enhancement.

Size: 14"L X 9.5" H X 7" W

I like to see the world as a Saturday morning cartoon, says ceramic artist Suzanne Noll, with cute little characters making us smile, laugh and enjoying the day while still teaching us a valuable lesson by the end of the show. It is my practice to use animals or nature as a subject that I transform into the whimsical world I envision.
Noll was born in Anaheim, California in 1964 where she accredits her parents as the driving force in nurturing her creativity. Her artistic mother, Stella, introduced Suzanne to the wonders of water colors, oil paintings as well as having a keen eye for home décor. David, her adept father taught her the art of creating with your hands as she watched him construct wooden furniture and then by helping him in building the family home when they moved to Oakland, Oregon.
In her fifteenth year, Suzanne realized she had adoration for numerous genres of art. In college, she took many computer animation, advanced sculpture, advanced drawing, acrylic, airbrush, and watercolor classes but found that three dimensional arts was where her passion lie.
Aside for her passions in the arts, Ms. Noll’s admiration for animals and nature shows in every piece she sculpts, has one or both as an influence if not as the primary subject.
Suzanne currently resides in Manteca, California where her own home is filled with personal inspirations having many animals to care for, including strays that she feeds, as well as plant life that she hopes will welcome other wildlife to visit.
