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.

C'est la rentrée des classes et Canel le lapin est un peu angoissé!
Un grand moment pour Canel car il va vivre son premier jour d'école!
Son cartable est prêt : un cahier, une règle, une jolie trousse remplie de "stylos bille", des crayons, une gomme sans oublier une carotte pour la récréation, son goûter préféré.
Sur le chemin de l'école, papa et maman Lapin ont rassuré Canel en lui expliquant qu'il allait apprendre des choses magnifiques avec me Grignotte sa maîtresse.
Il découvre sa classe avec son grand tableau noir, l'odeur des craies et les petits bureaux.
Il y retrouve ses amis Automne, Broci, Roux et Tim le chaton!
Canel est fier il pourra bientôt lire de belles histoires.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.
