I am also working on calligraphy. There is a particular style which I work in and clients are loving that style so I am experimenting to create a series of new calligraphy artworks in that particular style only,\u201d he says about how an artist needs to keep upscaling himself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"full-width-img py-3\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citywoofer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-03-03-at-7.11.56-PM-1-300x400.jpeg\" alt=\"Wall Art at Brooklyn Central\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p>Talking about how the art scene in the Tricity has changed over the years, \u201cMore people want art pieces for their residences and offices, there are more art exhibitions than earlier and there is regular work in the market for artists\u201d.<\/p>\n<div class=\"full-width-img py-3\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citywoofer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2023-03-03-at-7.11.55-PM-533x400.jpeg\" alt=\"wall art at Kala ghoda\" width=\"533\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p>However, one of the issues that hurts him the most is how customers don\u2019t understand the difference between a handmade or hand painted artwork and the digitally printed counterparts. \u201cThey don\u2019t want to pay an artist enough because there\u2019s a cheaper alternative available in the market. Initially art was not meant for the common people, it was always commissioned by kings and subsequently made keeping their interests in mind. But these days we need a good amount of affordable art which is accessible to commons. And to make this work, there should be awareness about art appreciation, it should be taught in schools and colleges so that the coming generations are able to understand and appreciate art and the artist better,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The object of art is not to reproduce reality, but to create a reality of the same intensity, a Swiss sculptor and painter Alberto Giacometti had said.
