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.

A Prayer for Peace

God of peace,
As my appearance
And appetite and energy
All begin to change,
Let me seek the peace I crave
In your unchanging love.

Help me to remember
That you are constant
When all around me is shifting.

Calm my anxieties
With the comfort of your presence.
Quiet the storm of my fears
With your calm.

Whisper still, small words of trust
And cradle my baby
In the warmth of your love.

Help me to celebrate
The life growing within me,
The child taking shape
In the dark chaos of creation.
Keep your horizon of hope
Ever before my eyes.

In peace I pray,
Amen.

Biography of Lihua Zhao
I was born in Hebei, China, and graduated from Oil Painting Department of Chengdu Academy of Fine Arts. I am also a member of China Contemporary Female Painting Association. Painting is a very important part of my life. My paintings are never constrained by the materials or styles. I love oil, watercolor, ink, toner, oil painting stick, behavior art, and etc. I also try realistic, abstract, impressionistic, cubist styles. For me, painting just as like a game, I can paint whatever I feel, love and dream about. I hope to be able to paint freely all my life! And I am a member of China Contemporary Female Painting Association. My works can be found in many private, municipal and corporate collections, and are shown in various solo and group exhibitions.
