Several factors contribute to what makes good wall art, including:
1. Visual Appeal - Wall art should be visually appealing and engaging. This means that it should have an interesting composition, use of color, texture, and pattern that draws the viewer's eye.
2. Emotional Connection - The best wall art often creates an emotional connection with the viewer. It might evoke a feeling of joy, nostalgia, inspiration, or contemplation.
3. Quality - High-quality wall art should be well-made with attention to detail. This includes quality materials, a durable frame, and precise printing or painting techniques.
4. Theme and Style - Wall art should be cohesive with the theme and style of the space it is being displayed in. This means considering factors such as the color scheme, furniture style, and overall mood of the room.
Ultimately it comes down to each individual's taste; and what they like to see in their living environment.
The Shamanic Journeying-inspired artwork surface is where you tend to look when you first gaze at the work; however, there is more to it than meets the eye: since another story/narrative is going on behind the surface.
I use archetypes more robustly as universal, archaic patterns and images that derive from the collective unconscious.
I keep a visual diary about how I feel about things in graphic form instead of words/text.
Every image is many months of long digestion of an idea that goes to drawing, then mostly painting format. A form of Coin mining of Intellectual property., on the Ethereum Blockchain via smart contracts.
My way of Surrendering the ego and all the connections to the ego; is that it represents the conscious mind, while the personal unconscious contains a wealth of memories I can tap into like all other artist types. Memories like totemic, which I like a lot and have always had near me; all of which can serve as an excellent source for a topic in the visual narrative I use
.
And yes, the collective unconscious is a unique component since it is part of the psyche reservoir that can serve an artist with a form of psychological inheritance shared by the collective psyche of humankind..... deep but true.
In the trending Nova Scotia Artist Gallery of French Acadian painter Claude Edwin Theriault, there is an extensive collection of artworks from 1980-present.
I use mostly Male Nudes; they are my standard animal totem Icon visual prop. I use them a lot in my visual narrative; however, a large part has re-occurring Allies like Owl, Cheetah, Sea-Horse, Raven, to the snake in the Hylas and Hades underworld artworks found here online. Oil paintings, silkscreens, etchings, lithographs, and drawings are in all mediums.
All illustrate a Shamanic narrative in a visual language instead of the written one. Something the new Digerati Intellect can appreciate.
Initially inspired by the ...first Nations artwork style you see in Abeam of Cape Blomidon's Sleeping Haida Moon/ to the current Shamanic symbolist style ...
