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.

Réalisé au stylo bille -
Le merle noir (Turdus merula) fait partie de la famille des turdidés.
Le mâle a un plumage noir avec un bec et un cercle autour de l'oeil, jaune orangé.
La femelle a un plumage brun et un bec marron et jaune pâle.
Le merle noir est omnivore et il consomme beaucoup d'insectes, des fruits et des vers...
On le retrouve dans les forêts et dans nos jardins où l'on peut entendre son chant très mélodieux dès la fin de l'hiver.
En avril, la femelle pondra 3 à 4 oeufs et les petits seront nourris ensuite par les 2 parents pendant 3 semaines environ.

Le petit-gris (Helix aspersa) appartient aux mollusques terrestres de la classe des gastéropodes.
Sa coquille calcaire protège son corps. Il rampe sur un pied musculaire ventral qui grâce au mucus visqueux, secrété par l'organe rampant, adhère aux objets.
Hermaphrodite, il pond des oeufs à coque blanche en juillet dans le sol, en creusant à l'aide de sa tête et de son pied. L'éclosion a lieu 3 à 4 semaines plus tard. Dès cet instant, les petits escargots partent à la recherche de la nourriture.
Dès que l'hiver arrive, le petit-gris se rétracte dans sa coquille et vivre au ralenti jusqu'au printemps.
Sa durée de vie est de 2 à 4 ans.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

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.
