Not so long ago art meant pictures on canvas, walls, plates or such. Now, however, it can also mean images created by a computer, digital camera or an event. It can incorporate any item we would care to name and virtually any medium we can use to express an idea, an emotion, or a feeling.
Art has virtually taken off and even web sites can be described as such. Certainly the goods available through the Internet, such as any form of craft, is definitely within that category. So photos juxtaposed over blankets, shirts, wallpaper, books and so on are within the range
It has given artists new challenges as many paint portraits and design canvases from photos. They can turn 2D images into 3D pictures. They can add shadows, shapes, images, and all forms of design over the original to create better impressions that people love to hang on their walls or carry on their person.
Some new trends are outstanding enough to warrant special mention. High among these are such things as wallpapers that cover windows but through which one can still see outside. The magnificent scenery in modern art and the techniques used allows one to greatly enhance their environment. The uses for such are enormous as different abodes require different treatment to make them livable..
Art has also entered the realm of images that glow in the dark or enhance a room with extraordinary touches of color that serve no other purpose other than to hide a blank wall, tizzy up a dull room or carry a color or shape of a feature piece of furniture. No matter its use art is certainly a greater entertainment medium than in the past.
Whatever the occasion there is now art to fulfill virtually every need and the Internet is fast becoming the best place to search for it.
My online shop here caters to most of the trends mentioned in the article with specialist artists featured.
