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.

Nives Palmić

Slovenia

Nives Palmić is a painter and art teacher. Her principle is to achieve uniqueness, not imitate anyone or anything: she wants to be completely honest in her work. She understands that her role is to be a messenger and not just a marketer, and sees the importance of art in communication, to remind people of all that is essential for humans. She is influenced by the art of ancient cultures, such as medieval and Persian miniature painting.

Nives Palmić was born in 1961 in Croatia. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana. Today, she works as an art teacher, as well as a mentor and reviewer for art exhibitions. Nives Palmić is also the author of a popular how-to book "From Drawing to Painting", published in 2011.

In recent years, she has flourished in abstract painting and applied art such as painting and fabric printing. But today, she focuses primarily on drawing. She has achieved optimal expression by using and mastering classical drawing techniques such as graphite pencil, charcoal, ink and pastel.

Her sources of inspiration are mainly natural forms, fascination with plants, flowers, trees and, on the other hand, ornament as a means of visual expression of ideas. Texture is essential in his drawings, reflecting the character of each motif and adding a sensual dimension.
