Virtual Art gallery on the Web - Reality or Illusion ?

If you already have an answer to this question - Congratulations ! Why I say that ?

Well , simply because so many people around do search for the answer without much success. That looks to me a lot like an "fulfilling prophesy" thing or an observer effect.

There are quite many web sites around, one may consider a "Virtual Art gallery on the Web" but what one gets from them , the end result one gets from them is what counts.

So , is online purchasing an Artwork like oil painting or graphic from Virtual Art gallery on the Web same intense , pleasant ans safe experience as buying a Painting in real "off line" world?

If you ask me , definitely NOT. But is it possible? Off course it is.

I receive hundreds of emails and hear people discussing about this and related subjects with quite a levels of confusion. My points is simple.

People DO BUY Art online , from Virtual Art gallery on the Web they choose to try out. Some are happy out of their offer and service , some are not so much pleased .

But the feeling , an emotional overall experience of choosing , selecting and purchasing art from online source cant even compare with same "ritual" when done in real life .

At least this is what many people do express to me in different occasions.

Since we are involved and we try our best to serve in booth sides - on and "off" line - we have more than nice things to say about booth ways. But I really miss to see and feel that emotional explosion and satisfaction expressed from our online buyers in real time. THAT you can't replace with anything, that's over all pleasurable if you ask me.

The Aborigines are natives of Australia. They have their own culture and traditions and have a continuous history spanning at least 50,000 years. Have you heard of a boomerang? A boomerang and another object known as didgeridoo are associated with the Aborigines. While boomerang is used for hunting, didgeridoo is a woodwind musical instrument. Let us take a look at the facts on Aboriginal art.

Facts on Aboriginal Art

The art work of Aborigines is known as Aboriginal art.

Aboriginal art has existed for many thousands of years. Some of the rock carvings and aboriginal paintings are 30,000 years old. These painting and carvings narrate the stories of the painter or sculptor.

A Bradshaw painting is one of oldest and most popular of rock paintings. There is a legend attached with Bradshaw paintings. The Aborigines believe the birds pecked the rocks and when their beaks bled they painted the images with their tail. Rock drawing with the help of stencils was also frequently used in Aboriginal art, wherein an object was placed on the rock and paint was splashed over it.

Did you know bark paintings are the oldest form of paintings in the wolds history? However, not many unique bark paintings exist . The reason is the natural disintegration of the bark. Aborigines used perishable materials such as carved logs and tree stumps and bark to draw and paint. Hence, only few specimens of the earlier Aboriginal art are remaining.

The traditional art of the Aborigines was focused on portraying and narrating the stories of the "Dream time", a their creation myth of . Some Aboriginal Art Symbols depict the world around them. Kangaroos, crocodiles and kookaburras are present in these paintings. We can also see that certain paintings contain the skeleton and organs of people and animals.

Aboriginal Art Symbols

Aboriginal art symbols is also known as iconography. Aboriginal people traveled long distance across their country. They recorded the information regarding their travel in form of symbols. The symbols were either lines or dots. Another fact about Aboriginal art symbols is that a particular symbol would have multiple meanings. Many of these symbols were used to narrate the complex "Dreamtime" tales.
Aboriginal art and paintings interpret the traditions and culture of the Aborigines. The symbols used in dot paintings to narrate the creation myth, are an integral part of Aboriginal paintings and art. The reason is that these symbols represent the laws, belief systems and customs of the Aborigines.Aboriginal art is one of the oldest art forms in the world. The contemporary Aboriginal art works use the symbols and signs of the ancient Aboriginal paintings. The only difference is that contemporary art uses acrylic paints on canvas instead of natural earth colors.
