A student from Guernsey recently used herself as a paintbrush to create a piece of Canvas Art for her BTEC Art qualification. Fabiana Martins was hung above the canvas as paint was poured over her. She then went on to use her movement to cast-off paint and create her own piece of canvas wall art for her course submission.
These days young people might be more likely to want to emulate people like famous and popular graffiti artist Banksy, creating their own version of Banksy artwork; but Miss Martins reverted to taking inspiration from more established modern artists who were part of the abstract expressionism ction Paintingmovement that was started in the 1940 and first promoted by Harold Rosenberg. The canvas was considered an rena to actand Miss Martins certainly applied this philosophy as her work took place in front of a small audience of 30 and was filmed to later be shown as part of the presentation of her work following the completion of her Diploma at the Delancey Campus of the College of Further Education
She followed in the footsteps of such artists as Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline and Willem de Kooning in creating a piece of art with an inherent depth and physicality, generated as a result of the thickness of paint and method of application, as is typical of the action painting movement. Many considered the painting itself to be a by product of the work of art which was instead the process of creation. The abstract art is still incredibly popular with pictures by Jackson Pollock still selling for millions of dollars, in fact, the last recorded sale was in November 2006 of Pollock No.5 1948 work where the piece was sold privately to an anonymous purchaser for $140 million.
If you don’t have $140 million to spend on Landscape Paintings work and don’t fancy hanging upside down and being drenched in paint to produce your own version of Fabiana Martinswork, then why not create something unique and get it printed on canvas. Whether it be printing photos on canvas or your own artwork, there are a whole host of ways you can bring a new piece of canvas wall art into your home without the typical hefty price tag.
If you feel oil paintings are too traditional, or abstract art doesn’t suit your style and you’re looking for something with a little more edge, then perhaps Banksy artwork is for you. You can browse a whole range of his works including his most iconic images, such as the issing Policemenor 鈥淧ulp Fictionpieces, and have them printed on canvas so you can have Banksy canvas art hanging in your home for a fraction of the price of the real deal; not to mention it much easier to hang a great piece of canvas wall art than it is an 8 tonne brick wall!
