What is an original artwork?

  • The One off…

    When people refer to an ‘original’ artwork they usually mean a one off ie. an artwork of which there is only one. The autonomous artwork.
    This would traditionally be a painting or sculpture but can also include monoprints, mixed media, installation, video art etc.

  • The Print…

    A print can also be an original artwork, particularly when hand crafted.
    People often refer to prints meaning ‘not original‘ but what they should really say is ‘reproduction‘ An editioned print is also a truly original and skilled art form.

Amber Arts provides a completely bespoke picture framing service. We excel in providing you with creative advice as all of our staff are artists in their own fields.
