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.

Pigment ink pens, metallic ink pens and art markers on acid free RendR opaque drawing paper. 14 × 11 inches

The surface of a condensed phase has special properties that are different from the interior. If a molecule thermodynamically “likes” being surrounded by other molecules on all sides, at the surface that molecule is exposed and thermodynamically “unhappy”. If the atoms in a material have a three dimensional preferred bonding pattern, at the surface some of those bonds are unsatisfied.

Sometimes a molecule will segregate to a surface or interface. Usually these surface enriched molecules are pushed out of the bulk (thermodynamically – no maxwell’s demons here!). In this case, the molecules at the surface are usually different from the ones in the bulk interior. Since something has to go to the surface, thermodynamics favors keeping the best conditions for the majority of molecules in the bulk, and the less common chemistries are enriched at the surface.

In the case of polymers, even a subtle difference like deuteration can cause noticeable surface enrichment. Polymers are long floppy molecules with low mixing entropy, so a number of effects are magnified.

This artist’s creative and somewhat surreal rendition of surface enrichment uses archival Prismacolor art markers and Windsor and Newton archival pigment markers with Sakura pigment ink fine line pens and metallic ink pens on acid free archival RendR brand opaque paper.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Ink

A strongly tinted liquid or paste that is used to mark paper or other printable materials. The design is done manually with a slab, feather, brush, or straightener.

Marker

Drawing made using a large felt with its own ink source. The ink may or may not be indelible.

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.
