Art

The Florentine artist, Leonardo Da Vinci was one of the great masters of the Renaissance, a celebrated painter, and a profound researcher. He once defined the art of painting as a poetry that is seen rather than felt, when poetry is something that is felt rather than seen. True is his assumption. Rather than applying paint to a surface, painting means a lot more, its definition can’t be restricted to few lines, and it is a form of art that is never finished, but abandoned.

As paint is applied to the canvas, there is an aesthetic application of thoughts merged in to it. It results in a combination of color forms, hailing attention from the onlooker, explaining by itself the intended connotation and setting it loose for their interpretation, thus resulting in various denotations. Painting is thus an art of freedom, formless and fastidious.

As an age old art, painting has undergone so many changes in its long and metamorphosed move till the present time. With the changing art and painting, there were also many artists who passed by with different techniques and innovations to the profession of painting. When someone took painting as just a hobby, there was also someone who dedicated their whole life to the artistic call searching for new applications of color and studying evolving forms of art. To preserve, or rather to give more of a finishing touch to the older paintings, reproduction paintings came into being.

Reproduction paintings did not give much of a new thought or introduced newer techniques to the painting methods. Reproduction works rather gave a renewed touch to what existed before and brought out in polished new forms. It could successfully attract art lovers in a greater way than the original works because of a new and stylistic appearance the reproduction works imparted.

Reproduction Oil Paintings

The main advantages of reproduction art can be summarized in

• Low cost-
Most of the reproduction paintings will offer low cost comparing to the original paintings. Those will be affordable too.

• Hand crafted-

There are different types of paint that are used for painting. They are acrylic paint, latex, oil, spray, wax, or primer. Of all these forms of painting, oil painting deserves special mention because it is used as a common medium in most of the painting methods and also oil paintings are the most wanted always. Many artists encounter the use of oil as a flexible, most friendly and free medium of painting. Thus more reproduction works have been done on oil paintings.

There are many gifted painters who have created a niche of their own in defining the art of paintings, explaining their imaginative ideas in forms colored by perceptions. Thus, Wassily Kandinsky, Renoir, Van Gogh, Da Vinci, and many more became authorities in their particular forms of art that gradually became popular in the respective fields. Abstract art, impressionistic paintings, modern and contemporary art thus gained much attention and slowly began to catch up in the art world.

Reproduction oil paintings can be divided into two many types.

1. Abstract reproduction oil paintings
Abstract painting is the use of colors and ideas in a non representational way. The idea implied in the paintings will be mostly hidden and the motive behind the art work would be masked in such a way that it produces a picture with details vague and disguised. It does not have any significance to figurative reality.

Abstract paintings gain much attention after the reproduction paintings came in to vogue. Paintings of many acclaimed artists, Wassily Kandinsky, Edward Munch, Paul Klee, Raoul Dufy, Juan Gris, Kasimir Malevich and many more contributed to the abstract oil paintings. Many of those works have been reproduced with great effort by artists in a professional way that gave a definite polished touch to the old paintings. Thus the reproduction paintings could bring out great innovations in the process of abstract work of art giving it a touch of freshness with simplicity.

2. Impressionistic reproduction oil paintings
In the method of impressionistic reproduction oil paintings, the artists used thick strokes of paint in a sketchy way. It emphasized more on the idea or the essence of the subject rather than its unnecessary details. Complementary colors were used instead of darker pigments when shading is necessary. Leaving brush strokes on the canvas, they applied oil in the most original way possible.

The reproduction methods were quite similar to the art process. The artists employed easy methods of reproducing the original keeping the simplicity of the art intact. The impressionistic painters were Mary Cassatt, Gustave Caillebotte, Edgar Degas, Childe Hassam, Renoir, Camille Pissarro and many more.

Many employed different reproduction methods in way that did not spoil the original work of art. The impressionistic painting techniques also contained abstract work of art in a liberal method, not confined to any conventions and barriers. The artists here were free to use the methods of his choice and liking in such a way that it carried the same notion of impressionistic style.

Thus, as classical art forms gave vent to contemporary art forms, and when many other classifications of art and styles began to be used, the works that created a niche in their own respective ways were restored in a highly polished and stylish manner. Irrespective of the artist, technique used, and methods employed in the paintings, reproduction paintings found its place secured and is now attracting great lovers of art.

Painting is an exemplary art form. There is always a reason to paint- an innate feeling, the need for expression or an urge to denote connotations… As Edward Hopper says, “If you could say everything in words, there would be no reason to paint.”
