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.

Watercolour painting of Scottish sheep Mary looking like Mother Teresa and holding in her arms the white little bear Benjamin Butterscotch

Truffle McFurrytells the story:
�
Hallo my dear friends, I hope you had all a wonderful Advent weekend.. WE did!
smile emoticon

I know I haven't been much around lately, but I hope you haven't forgotten us. I hope you still remember our lovely Scottish sheep Mary, which had been abandoned by her family in Scotland and been brought back to Spain by Miki&Kevin all the way down from Scotland.

And I hope you haven't forgotten Benjamin Butterscotch, our most little one in the family, that beautiful snow-white mini-bear!

Anyway I was reading the news about Mother Teresa being soon a saint, and I told Mary. We both like knowing what is going on in the world. Mary then said that it was a miracle too that she has herself found such a lovely family to live with, and that she deserved to be a saint too, and that she wanted to be painted like Saint Mary with our new baby meerkat Oleg in her arms. And that she wanted to look like mother Teresa. This is what she most wanted for Christmas, she said!

Miki could not say "no" of course, but Baby Oleg is much too big. Despite being a baby, he is bigger than Mary, so Mary would look very wrong holding Oleg in her arms. It would not be even possible, she has got such thin arms! Mary agreed and then said, she wanted to hold Benjamin Butterscotch in her arms, and we all said that it was a fantastic idea!

So, here she is, the nativity according to Mary and Benjamin Butterscotch ... and Miki of course!

Mary takes the opportunity to send many special hugs and kisses to our new friend from Scotland, Christina, that so lovely lady who is knitting the most wonderful Truffle jumpers in the world!!!

Love you all

xx

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Watercolor

Watercolor is a painting in which gum arabic binds transparent pigments revealing the support of the painting. The gouache, of identical composition, is opaque. A watercolor is a water-based painting on paper. We rarely speak of a painting for a work painted in watercolor. Watercolor paintings are considered to be a unique way to creatively represent dreams, illusions, emotions and luminous feelings using water soluble pigments. However, painting with watercolors can be difficult. It's a difficult medium to master, in large part because it can be ruthless and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct and its fluid nature makes it difficult to control. Yet it is these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm.

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.

Miki De Goodaboom is a contemporary French artist. For Miki, painting serves as a reflective canvas, mirroring the perpetual ebb and flow of her existence - a dance between light and shadow, lines and shapes, times and places. In her art, she ceaselessly seeks equilibrium, a delicate balance found only in continuous movement, in the enigmatic realms of the mysterious and the unknown. Her life unfolds as a narrative woven between two profound passions: mathematics and painting. The former, a supreme form of abstract art, governs her universe, dictating the rules of her cosmic journey. The latter emerges as a means of crystallizing the beauty inherent in that mathematical art, capturing its essence on the canvas of her imagination.

Miki De Goodaboom's art transcends geographical boundaries, and her paintings serve as universal expressions that resonate with viewers worldwide. Her unique ability to encapsulate the essence of her passions within her art makes each piece a testament to the intricate tapestry of her life - a life painted with strokes of creativity, mathematical precision, and an unwavering commitment to capturing the profound beauty found in the harmonious interplay of shapes and colors. Her works, a manifestation of her vibrant life, have found eager audiences and appreciative buyers across the world.
