In this Blog on the, Interior Decorating, Art, and Creative Art, I research what exactly is Art and how do we separate, the similar areas of Art. Most highly, How can the Creative Artist, Contribute in this specific specialisation, and is this particular Art form, and forms valuable to this whole Type of Art Style, and if this Type of sociological need, is paramount, for our Culture and for the specific, specified, needs of all people…Or just in our Western Society?… I will be contributing my idea and type of Art work, for two specific rooms, the entrance to a home, and a painting for a bedroom. For these paintings, I have decided to use, The Watercolour Pencils, Faber–Castells, with a water wash, to give the effect to, the Unique, Interior Decorating Art, that hopefully contributes to this genre.
According to the Wikipedia, Encyclopedia, it says, that the History of Art–Focuses on objects made by humans in a Visual form, for aesthetic purposes. Visual art can be classified in diverse ways such as separating Fine arts from Applied arts, inclusively focusing on human creativity, and also on the graphic arts. In the different media’s, such as Architecture, sculpture, painting, film, photography, and graphic arts. In recent years, Technological advances have lead to video art, computer art, animation, television and video games.
In the Interior design article, it says that Art and Science, is a form of enhancing the Interior of a building, to achieve a Healthier and more aesthetically pleasing environment, for the People using the space.
The Following Watercolour Painting is my contribution to this Interior art design, this painting is to be put in a White frame, and to be placed above an Entrance table, at the front door in the house at the entrance, of a Contemporary, home.
This is the first stage of the painting, it is the drawing in 2b Lead pencil, and some colouring in Watercolour Pencils–The Faber Castell. These pencils are easy to use, they glide on, and its a pleasure to work in these colours.
The next painting is the above, completed painting, done in the Faber Castell, Watercolour Pencils and a Wash of water over the Colours. I have then used a Fine Liner, Sharpie–Marker to outline the whole painting.

Interior Design Styles–
- Art Deco–style began in Europe in the early 20th Century. The Art Deco Style influenced all areas of design, in particular Interior Design, because it spotlighted all the New technologies and materials. Art Deco, Style, is mainly based on Geometric shapes, streamline, and clear lines.
- Modern Art–grew out of the Decorative arts, mostly from Art Deco, in the early 20th Century. The first to introduce this, was Frank Lloyd Wright. Modern Art reached its peak in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Modern Art is not the same as Contemporary Design, in which the term is used, to apply to the Changing culture, and movements, which are in recent times, due to Changes in Style preferences, and in the Newer trends, availability.
- Arab Materials–Nagash painting is the Decoration of the front parlour of the Traditional Arabic homes in the Asir province of the Saudi Arabia and parts of Yemen. These paintings are a form of Mural or Fresco, which show Geometric designs in bright colours, called ‘Nagash’, in Arabic, the wall paintings are a Mark of Pride, for a Woman in her Home. In the Arab culture, you realise how serious Interior Decorating Art is, to the home owner, family and in this Culture context.
Specialities in Interior Design–Residential, is the design of the Interior of Private residences. The Interior designer may work on the project from the Initial planning stage, or may work on the modelling of an existing structure. It is often a very involved Process, that takes months to fine–tune and create a Space with the Clients’ vision.
The painting below is drawn in 2b Lead pencil, and coloured in Watercolour Pencils by Faber Castell. I then Water washed lightly over the colours, let the colours dry, and then outlined the painting with a Fine Liner–Sharpie Marker, to complete the painting. This painting should be placed in a beautiful White frame, and put up in a Main Bedroom of a Contemporary Built Home.
