Finding the Right Drawings And Watercolor Paintings for You

Revitalize your interiors — introduce drawings and watercolor paintings to your home to evoke emotions, stir conversation and show off your personality and elevated taste.

Drawing is often considered one of the world’s oldest art forms, with historians pointing to cave art as evidence. In fact, a cave in South Africa, home to Stone Age–era artists, houses artwork that is believed to be around 73,000 years old. It has indeed been argued that cave walls were the canvases for early watercolorists as well as for landscape painters in general, who endeavor to depict and elevate natural scenery through their works of art. The supplies and methods used by artists and illustrators to create drawings and paintings have evolved over the years, and so too have the intentions. Artists can use their drawing and painting talents to observe and capture a moment, to explore or communicate ideas and convey or evoke emotion. No matter if an artist is working in charcoal or in watercolor and has chosen to portray the marvels of the pure human form, to create realistic depictions of animals in their natural habitats or perhaps to forge a new path that references the long history of abstract visual art, adding a drawing or watercolor painting to your living room or dining room that speaks to you will in turn speak to your guests and conjure stimulating energy in your space.

When you introduce a new piece of art into a common area of your home — a figurative painting by Italian watercolorist Mino Maccari or a colorful still life, such as a detailed botanical work by Deborah Eddy — you’re bringing in textures that can add visual weight to your interior design. You’ll also be creating a much-needed focal point that can instantly guide an eye toward a designated space, particularly in a room that sees a lot of foot traffic.

When you’re shopping for new visual art, whether it’s for your apartment or weekend house, remember to choose something that resonates. It doesn’t always need to make you happy, but you should at least enjoy its energy. On 1stDibs, browse a wide-ranging collection of drawings and watercolor paintings and find out how to arrange wall art when you’re ready to hang your new works.

Questions About Original Watercolor Painting
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    An original painting is anything thought to be the true work of the artist instead of an imitation or reproduction. Original art can be in any media, as long as it is the first of that piece of art.
    Irena Orlov ArtFebruary 26, 2021
    When we refer to "original" it simply means a unique painting made by the artist's own hand. Acrylic, oil, engraving, watercolor, or drawings are authentic techniques that allow the artist to capture his or her distinctive stamp: such as textures, a particular way of brushstroke, colors, lines, among other elements. But besides, the idea must be unique, the result of creativity, which makes the work more valuable and desirable.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024
    To tell if a watercolor is an original or a print, look at it from the side. On an original piece, you'll notice an uneven surface due to the brushstrokes that form the watercolor. Prints will typically have smooth surfaces. You can also examine the artist's signature. If it appears to be printed on rather than hand-signed, your watercolor is likely not an original. For further assistance, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer. On 1stDibs, find an assortment of watercolor paintings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Watercolors are created using paints in which the pigments are suspended in a water-based solution.

  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024
    How prints are made from original paintings varies. For centuries, the primary methods were traditional printmaking techniques such as engraving, etching, aquatint, drypoint and woodcut. Today, many artists use digital technology, scanning and photographing paintings and then using the files to produce giclée prints using large, specialized inkjet printers. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of art prints.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    To tell if a painting is an original or a copy, research the artist and their work using trusted online resources. Specifically, learn about the brushstrokes that the artist commonly used and then examine your piece for evidence of these techniques. You can also compare the signature on your painting to the ones found in online images. Because it can be difficult to authenticate art without experience and training, you may wish to enlist the help of a certified appraiser or art dealer. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of paintings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
    To tell a print from an original painting, study its surface carefully. On a painting, you will likely notice variations in texture and see visible brushstrokes. Prints are more likely to appear smooth due to the printing process. However, some prints may be enhanced with hand-applied brushwork after the production process, which may make it more difficult to tell a painting from a print. When in doubt, seek the opinion of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer. Explore a wide range of fine art on 1stDibs.

    To find the value of an original painting, experts generally recommend that you use the valuation services of a certified appraiser or experienced dealer. Although you can utilize the signature on the piece to identify the artist and then consult trusted online resources to see what other pieces by them have sold for in the past, many factors can affect how much a painting is worth, such as its condition, ownership history, size, materials and current level of demand for the artist's work. A knowledgeable professional can inspect your piece and take all of these things into consideration to provide you with an accurate estimated value. Explore a variety of paintings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024
