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.

20000 leagues under the sea, author of the project development of a series of television films. Sketch №3 – Keith unknown species. Paper, pen, hand technique (52,39 cm x 35,87 cm / 6188x4237 pixel) 300 dpi

I quickly got up and sat on the back of a being or object semi-submersible in water on which we had taken refuge. Kicking it with foot, I found out that it was spin-tight and solid, but not elastic, unlike to body of large mammals. I thought we were on the bony skull, similar to the skulls of antediluvian animals, so I would have to carry monster to the category of reptiles, like turtles or alligators, but it was not so, the black back on which I stood was smooth and polished and not flaky. Stricken it produced a metallic sound and gave the impression of riveted steel plates. There was no doubt: an animal, a monster, a living phenomenon, a mystery what excited the scientific world and the shocking sailors of both hemispheres, it turned out – we had to believe the evidence - even more surprising phenomenon, a phenomenon created by human hand!

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Technic Drawing

Drawing is a technique of visual representation on a flat support. The term "drawing" designates both the action of drawing, the resulting graphic work, and the shape of any object. It is also a representation on a surface of the shape (and possibly the light and shadow values) of an object or figure, rather than their color. There are a large number of drawing techniques: “Linear drawing” represents objects by their outlines, edges and some characteristic lines; beyond this limit, the drawing develops by representing the volume by shadows, often by means of hatching, incorporates colors, and joins, without clear transition, the painting.
