Art Comes in Many Forms and Always Tells a Story Annie Watsham presents the numerous ways people can express themselves through art ART Whether we’re creating art ourselves or viewing the work of others, it is a medium through which we can communicate and express our inner feelings and our creativity. Art knows no boundaries and essentially always tells a story – it’s a true form of communication, and humans are wired to enjoy stories! Whether you’re an existing artist or a budding artist here’s a brief precis: Stillness in Spring by Hannah Buchanan PAINTINGS Painting come in many different formats in different media. Still life, landscapes, seascapes, abstract, portraiture and pop art are types of painting genres using oil, acrylics, watercolours or indeed mixed media, including collage. The surface that’s used e.g. canvas, board, paper and even wood, has a bearing on how the finished painting will look. This peaceful piece by local artist Hannah Buchanan is executed in oil on canvas board. SCULPTURES Sculptures are three-dimensional art forms using materials such as clay, stone or wood and are essentially formed bit by bit into a particular shape and structure, as in the case of a clay sculpture, or chiselled and carved from a block of wood or a piece of stone/ marble. PHOTOGRAPHY Photography is the art of producing an image of an object on a photographic film. The way the image is captured with the use of light differs from photographer to photographer and can be used for fashion photography, wildlife photography, food photography, wedding photography and portraiture. JEWELLERY DESIGN Jewellery design involves the design of intricate pieces of jewellery from metals, wood, glass or plastic. Metals that are primarily used for designing jewellery are gold, silver, platinum and copper. Jewellery design also incorporates precious and semi-precious stones for its execution. Art glass by Beverley Bunn ART GLASS Kent artist Beverley Bunn creates kiln-formed glass art for both domestic and commercial interiors and outdoor spaces, from decorative wall panels to practical light sconces and splashbacks, garden wall art to sculpture. With a background in engineering, Beverley enjoys pushing the boundaries of this fascinating medium to achieve a variety of textures, illusions and movement in her work. PRINTMAKING Printmaking is an artistic process based on the principle of transferring images from a matrix onto another surface, most often paper or fabric. Traditional printmaking techniques include woodcut, etching, engraving, and lithography. Modern artists have expanded available techniques to include screen printing. Feeding the Ducks by Carole Aston LINOCUT Linocut is a printmaking technique, a variant of woodcut in which a sheet of linoleum is used for a relief surface. A design is cut into the lino surface with a sharp knife, V-shaped chisel or gouge, with the raised areas representing a reversal (mirror image) of the parts to show printed. The lino sheet is inked with a roller and then impressed onto paper or fabric. The actual printing can be done by hand or with a printing press. Local artist Carole Aston uses this technique to great effect! CERAMICS Ceramics cover any of the various hard, brittle, heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials made by shaping and then firing an inorganic, non-metallic material, such as clay, at a high temperature. Common examples are earthenware, porcelain, and brick. Lace Emulsion Etching on Corrugated Iron by Scarlett Woodman OTHER MEDIUMS Basically, an imaginative artist can use just about any medium for their art. Local artist Scarlett Woodman often uses a combination of constructive and destructive processes including painting, drawing, scratching and burning and works mostly with reclaimed building materials. Whichever art form you choose to use or view – there are no boundaries – enjoy! The Cake • Spring 2022 37
