The unknown masters of art
By Florie Lyn Masarate
Paintings of the great masters can usually be seen on canvases
hanging on the walls of great museums. These pieces of art are
considered priceless paintings, that precautions are taken
seriously in order to avoid them falling into the wrong hands.
These are the paintings and the artists that have been given due
recognition for their craft. Who are these unknown artists?
The “big-time” artists. They do not just settle for the conventional canvas that
most artist use. They make their own canvases. These are the large scale
artists. And their canvas: the street. The street as a medium for art work is as
unique as it is extraordinary.
The artist uses his own style in drawing pictures and using special techniques
to put color into them. Some devices their own chalks and color apparels to be
able to make beautiful creations on streets.
As more people began to appreciate the street paintings, more and more artists
were got into the habit. In some parts of the world, street painting festivals
are held. Showcasing paintings that are feasts to the eyes, they border from
simple drawings to life-like paintings even 3-D pictures. Each painting depicts
different personalities and styles that the artist is known for. These are the
artists of the streets, street artists.
The “hidden” artists. They make quality pictures and have their
works displayed worldwide. Their works are the ones seen by
people as they search, open or simply browse through
information. Everyone with this high-tech gadget called the
computer can access these works of art. And companies,
businesses and individuals that needed their services are the
lucky recipients of these artists’ works.
These are the artists doing graphic designs for clients whether
in print or in the internet. The finished prints and drawings
look easy to make when people see them. The results are usually
catered to the clients’ preferences and more often than not,
they exceed expectations. From simple ideas and maybe even
thoughts, these artists can make them into reality.
Using state-of-the-art equipments, they develop concepts from scratch, making
them work for the idea and what they stand for.
Unlike other artists, they are the ones making ideas into concrete images.
Thoughts into visuals. And visions into works of art. Unlike artists whose ideas
come from inspiration and exposure, they are the ones thinking of ideas for
another persons’ needs. They do not wait for the inspiration, they make it.
So what makes these artists different from other artists?
Simple. They make art work.
