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.

Categories Paintings under $5,000 Figurative Esotericism

Painting illustrating the virtues that constitute a woman. Each elements symbolises a different characteristic, inspired by Dali's drawers. The sand in the top drawer represents women's incubatory virtue- like the desert is an incubator for the bones and prayers of those who have died, the woman is an incubator for life but also lost loves, prayers and wishes.

The comet represents the oppression of women in the society. A comet can be seen roughly every 100 years, but it shines so bright. Just like the comet, women are rarely given the chance to shine; however, when they do they can light up the entire sky.
The antlers emphasise a woman's transition from a little girl, to a young adult, a wife, a mother and then a grandmother. She's always in a constant process of transformation.

The water in the bottom drawer is representative of the ocean. In its vastness, the ocean hides deeply buried secrets and quenches her lover's thirst for love and reassurance, through nurturing.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Oil

Paint consisting of pigments bound with linseed oil or carnations. The traditional technique consists of superimposing layers of paint increasingly rich in oil for a solid and durable hanger.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.
