Decorative and applied arts: designation of carving, technology of work execution

To date, arts and crafts (DPI) continues to be a popular art form, which contains various types of creativity aimed at creating beautiful products used in everyday life. One of the branches of the DPI is carving on various materials, for example, on metal, wood or eggshell. Thus, the designation of thread By material and technique of execution are associated with the everyday system inherent in a certain epoch. Works of art have an impact on the mood, emotional and moral state of a person.

At present, the craft for the manufacture of decorative objects with the help of carving has become widespread. Before you start creating masterpieces, you need to decide what material will be used in this case. It can be both a tree and an egg shell, it is important here to choose the exact designation of the thread, that is, to make a workpiece with a certain pattern or notches applied to it. This will help to properly and accurately perform the work.

If an egg shell is used, it is recommended first to carefully place the pattern on the shell with a conventional pencil, and those places that will be cut out should be marked with a pencil of bright color. It should be noted that the carving on the eggshell is a sawing out of various ornaments with the help of a drill. In this case, it is good to use a magnifying glass to cut precise and smooth contours, the working surface must be soft so that the egg does not get any cracks in the process of work. Using a drill, the shell is drilled in places that are marked with a bright color. Then the initial volume is created, and only then the marked outlines are deleted along the whole perimeter of the egg. At the end of the work, the stone for polishing removes all irregularities and errors.

In the case of using metal with a thread, before starting its processing, it is necessary to fix the workpiece on an even non-slip surface. Before drilling, it is necessary to mark the thread, in this case the pattern is applied to the metal surface. At present, special scissors for metal threading, which ensure high efficiency of the work carried out, have become very popular. Such scissors have a stepless matrix, which allows you to make circular turns, while all the metal scraps fall back down. The threading technology in this case is the same as in the case of the egg shell, but threading on the metal is a more time consuming process, requiring more time.

Before you start the wood carving, you need to decide what kind of breed it will be used for. Highly hard (hornbeam, yew), hard (oak, walnut, birch) and soft (linden, aspen) breeds are distinguished. To create a durable and durable product, birch or oak is used, nut, linden or alder are used to create small items and jewelry.

Thus, in the thread can be used almost any type of wood, it all depends on its properties, both mechanical and decorative. Before proceeding to the thread, it is necessary to dry the used material well in the open air, and then walk along its surface with sandpaper to remove irregularities. After this, it is required to mark the thread with a pencil, the thread itself is made using a jig saw using the technology described above. The finished product is tinted with lacquer or wax mastic.

Thus, the creation of elements of applied art requires a lot of time, patience and strength, because it is a responsible work that requires accuracy. The beauty and splendor of the material used for carving, as well as the structure and the correct ratio of the elements, make it possible to impart emotional content to the finished product. So, for today the decor gives objects of expressiveness and image structure, thereby modifying their form and artistic image.
