6. Glass art
The fragile beauty of glass has long made it an irresistible medium for artistic expression in many different forms. The glassblowers of 13th century Murano created works of art that were so remarkable that they became the lifeblood of the Republic. Today, artist Dale Chihuly continues to show the
captivating beauty of this material through his mesmerising glass sculptures. Other artists use glass as their canvas. Richard Rowan’s unique technique of painting oils onto the underside of a sheet of glass sees him defy the normal rules of painting to create works of art from the foreground, back.
The clever use of perspective is employed by artists in many ways. Stuart McAlpine Miller layers images within his artwork, encouraging the viewer to unravel the piece over time. The effect is a piece of art in which two people can see very different compositions. Another technique that manipulates perspective is reverse perspective - a technique created by artist, Patrick 7. Perspective
Hughes. A two dimensional perspective is reversed by the three dimensional relief on which it is painted. The result influences the brain to create a completely false image that appears to move with the viewer. In recent years, artist John DWilson has adopted the reverse perspective technique and applied it to his signature style of painting to create intriguing, playful and extremely clever pieces of art.
