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.

Martin James – Artist

Martin was born in Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK in 1959 and moved to Sydney, Australia
at the age of 10 where he has lived ever since.

Martin painted a few pictures at high school but was discouraged from continuing
and did not pursue the study or appreciation of art upon leaving school. He did however pursue music and became an accomplished guitarist, songwriter and recording producer
working professionally in the music industry.

It was not until the age of 36 when Martin as a father of three came home from the local library with a learn to paint and draw video for his children. Well the kids had a quick scribble but Dad’s taking this seriously. Three years later in 1999 Martin exhibited a number of exploratory drawings and paintings at the Café Gallery in Sydney ( 15 of which were sold) and followed that up with another successful exhibition in the following year.

His style was initially influenced by a visit to the ‘Fauves Exhibition” at NSW Art Gallery where he fell in love with oil painting and colour. He uses colour vividly in crayon, pastel and oil paint to produce landscapes, still lifes and an imaginative mixture
of figure and mindscape.
