Top 10 Types of Street Arts Article by  Aashima Singh , March 31, 2015 What is art? The question is sure to evoke many different answers; after all there is no well described definition for it. Art can be anything from sketching to cooking, from singing to painting. It can be visual as in a painting, a sketching or comic strips etc. It can be audible as in music, vocal or instrumental. Or it can even be edible as cooking is also an art, with all the textures and flavours combining to serve your taste buds. Talking about visual art, the world has seen many great artists, like Pablo Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci and Paolo Uccello among many others, who have turned the canvas into their magnificent artworks but some others did not want their work to be confined in the sheets of paper or canvas. They needed something bigger, something huge to display their talent and emotions. Moreover they wanted to convey strong social messages which could not be done by keeping the art work in ...

Glass Decorating Techniques*

Glass Decorating Techniques* Methods of Cutting the Glass by Ron Fox In this article, I will be discussing the different methods which have been used to give the appearance of detailed scenes to glass steins. These methods include etching, cutting, scratching and engraving, and may be used alone or in combination. Diamond Point Engraving This was the earliest method used to decorate engraved glass, dating back to around the 16th century. The artist employed a diamond or a hard metal tool to scratch the glass surface with linear designs. All designs were surface decorations, as the limitations of the engraving tool prevented the artist from making deep or wide scratches. With the advent of copper wheel engraving, diamond point engraving became obsolete. Stippling This method dates about as far back as diamond point engraving and was similar in that it used the same diamond or hardened steel point to strike the glass. This action left a series of small dot-shaped chips...

Exploring different CD printing methods Below we look at the options available for printing on to a CD, DVD or Blu-ray disc.

This raises a couple of issues. It is not so obvious which way round a CD should be inserted into the player or drive, and further, the problem of differentiating one disc from another. There are several print methods used for BD, DVD or CD printing, these are, in no particular order, printed cd labels, lithographic (offset) print, screen print, inkjet print, and thermal print. No one particular print method can be considered the 'best', but depending on the quantity, design and turnaround of the project, there is usually one option that would be most suitable and most economical. CD Labels CD labels are sticky paper labels, which are usually on perforated A4 s...

Wallpaper - Types of Printing

Wallpaper - Types of Printing The most widely used print processes are surface, flexographic or flexo, gravure and screen. It is important to recognize that each process is capable of yielding attractive, stylized and salable products. Each process enables the manufacturer to produce a specific characteristic look.  The most common types of printing are: Surface Printing Surface printing is most often employed to reproduce a stencil-like effect for traditional florals, juvenile and country motifs. This is accomplished through the use of light weight urethane print cylinders. The print design actually coincides with raised areas on the roller. This raised portion is obtained by removing or cutting away metal to leave the desired design elevated above the rest of the cylinder (like an ink stamp). Printing is accomplished by first applying ink onto the raised areas. The inked roller is then pressed against the material to be printed causing the ink color to be transferred from th...
