Drawings Featuring Water Reflections - Not Always What It Seems

Tue, 24 Sep 2024 18:00:00 +0900

Who is that face I see, staring straight back at me? Bodies of water can serve as mirrors, but not always—sometimes, they show you what isn’t apparent on the surface but what’s real on the inside.

Go ahead and wade into this ethereal world of reflections, but be careful—one drop in the ocean might be all it takes to shatter the illusion.

What I should I put in the frame? Drawings Containing Frames

Thu, 19 Apr 2018 17:00:00 +0900

A “frame” is an item that people use to enhance the greatness of an artwork, whether it’s a picture or a painting, before hanging it on the wall.

Frames are also important items of highlight; take the museum for example, each frame serves as a shield for an artwork and brings out the best of the artwork without obscuring its presence. It’s like giving your artwork the finest layer of makeup and so it’s probably a wonderful idea to start putting more emphasis on the kinds of frames you use. Also, consider this: an empty frame by itself makes for a stylish decoration, the kind that prompts your guests to ponder about the meaning behind the emptiness.

Today, we’re featuring illustrations of “frames”. Enjoy!
