Sculptors make three dimensional and most often very much startlingly realistic works. Illustrators and sketchers bring life to a flat surface armed only with lead pencils and inked pens. Painters employ an uncanny knack for color combination and light and shadow techniques through airbrush Orlando to create the most vivid pieces that their generation can be proud of.

Aside from all these traditional mediums, spray painting is slowly rising up with regards to artworks of the modern generation. Graffiti is the creation of masterpieces not in canvas, but in bare walls. This first started as a form of propaganda and protest. Three dimensional works originated in the idea to trick ordinary passerby with cool and effective optical illusions. While both started out as something else, these two are now considered as a form of modern art.
