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.

Charte du Fauconnier ......
Quand tu sauras choisir ton oiseau de vol, lui prodiguer les soins réservés aux seuls princes et faire de lui un athlète puissant, fier et
redoutable.
Quand tu auras par ton calme, ton adresse et mille petits gestes, gagné sa confiance.
Quand par la souplesse de ton bras, ton compagnon considérera ton gant comme un aimable reposoir et que tu sauras courir ou sauter sans faire tinter les sonnettes.
Quand tu feras, d'un geste habile du poignet, se placer l'oiseau convenablement sur le poing, sans t'aider de ta main.
Quand jamais rien, dans la fauconnerie, il ne manquera.
Quand pour la première fois libre, tu le contempleras, ému s'élever dans le ciel et se griser des courants pour revenir, à ton appel, se poser sur ton gant.
Quand, empiété par ta faute, lentement, sans t’énerver, ta main douloureuse des serres, une à une, tu libéreras.
Quand ton oiseau refusera de voler devant tes amis parfois narquois et que tu sauras, calme et souriant, avec douceur le reprendre en n'ayant de reproches que pour toi-même.
Quand tu sauras corriger tes fautes, sans punir l'oiseau par le jeûne,
Quand tes exigences croîtront avec le nombre de mues, que ces mues chaque année le même oiseau tu sortiras, et que jamais une penne brisée, tu ne toléreras.
Quand tu sauras ne pas renoncer à voler l'oiseau médiocre et que tu mettras toute ta science à développer ses qualités.
Quand, malgré ta prudence, il dérobera ses sonnettes et que tu sauras, des jours durant, le chercher avec méthode, perspicacité et intelligence et
qu'enfin soulagé et heureux, tu le ramèneras.
Quand tu sauras immédiatement déceler la maladie, à la seule vue de ton oiseau ou de ses émeus avant que de penser à t'installer toi-même.
Quand tu pourras, pour lui, renoncer à tes autres projets et que la volerie sera pour toi non un passe-temps décoratif, mais un mode de vie chargé de lourdes contraintes.
Quand enfin, par ton comportement, ta famille supportera ta passion, ton rêve et que jamais tu n'oublieras tout ce que tu lui fais endurer.
Alors, alors seulement, tous seront nés pour se plaire à voler avec toi.
Le pouvoir et savoir-faire tu auras.
Tu seras fauconnier.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

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 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.

Michel Guillet

France

Michel Guillet, versatile artist, has been a figurative pastellist since January 2010. He is an active member of the “Pastel en Dauphiné” association. His artistic passion leads him to explore a multitude of varied motifs without being confined to a specific theme. Whether portraits, landscapes, still lifes or reproductions of works of art, Michel Guillet likes to capture the diversity of the world around him through his pastels.

What particularly sets Michel apart is his commitment to sharing his art with the public. During exhibitions, he engages in live demonstrations, offering visitors an insight into his creative process. He enjoys interacting with “admirers” of his work, informing them about his techniques and sometimes inviting them to actively participate in his demonstrations.

Michel Guillet is self-taught, but he prefers to consider that each of us has artistic talents that are just waiting to be revealed. He believes in everyone's ability to explore their creativity and let their talents flourish with a little practice and support.

Since his retirement in Aix-les-Bains at the beginning of 2012, Michel Guillet has enjoyed the time necessary to discover the splendors of the Alps and devote himself fully to his two passions: pastels and photography, where he excels as a 'amateur. His art reflects his love for the diversity of the world and his desire to share his creativity with the public.
