Original Artwork Painting, Watercolor on Paper

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.

Aquarelle travaillée sur papier "Arches" - Ce ballet "La Nuit de Walpurgis" a été ajouté par Gounod au début du 5ème acte de l'Opéra par son côté obligatoire dans tout "Grand Opéra" ! Celui-ci est une réussite mis en place à un moment où Méphistophélès invite Faust à visiter son royaume. Il tente de faire oublier Marguerite à Faust en l'invitant à un grand banquet dans un décor dantesque où des danseuses, âmes errantes de toutes natures veulent envoûter Faust ! Mais Faust pense toujours à Marguerite jusqu'à la fin de ce ballet d'une grande créativité ! Un enchantement dans cet Opéra déjà si riche par le thème et la musique ! Magique ! Mes délires !

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.
