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.

I have many friends in Florida born in Cuba. Last year..when I flew back to Miami after 3 amazing weeks in Greece..my airport van driver told me that he is a member of the Classic American Car Club of Miami-Dade County,Florida..and the members LOVE the old Buicks,Chevrolets,Pontiacs,Cadillacs and Oldsmobile that have been seen still on the streets (las calles) of Havana..and throughout Cuba.

I had mentioned that I am an International painter..I agreed to do a series of paintings to sell at their exhibits..and while I am not a 'trained' auto illustrator..(self taught)...these paintings are very popular.

This original 14 inch wide X 11 inch deep rendering of a 1950's (maybe 1956 or 1957?) vintage Pontiac..was created with acrylics on gessoboard (wood panel). It is being sold without a frame (unframed)..however..you can buy an inexpensive frame locally..the size is standard.

This is first of a new series of car paintings and street scenes from the Caribbean Islands.. I signed and dated the painting lower right side. COA-Certificate of Authenticity will be sent with shipment. Shipping costs included with full price offers. Merci. Muchos gracias.

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

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.
