Fine Art and the Science Of 3D Crystal Engraving

There's definitely more to great 3D crystal engraving designs than just algorithms, point clouds and lasers. Sure, technology is great when it comes to what is arguably one of the most fun, intriguing and high-tech souvenirs or trophies.
How advanced the equipment is, and how current the software and the technical expertise of the people operating the equipment all make an impact on the quality of the finished design.
But science is only half of the story.
The other half? Art! Artwork Deserves Artists A 3D crystal engraving souvenir or trophy is, first and foremost, a commemorative piece of art.

And who creates art? Artists, of course-people with the inclination, training and expertise in what makes good art when it comes to aesthetics, proportion, perspective and everything that dictates good design.

What's more, anything that deserves being commemorated in a way that lasts as long as a 3D crystal engraving-and they do last practically forever-also deserves the treatment only artists can give.
It's the equivalent of having a portrait painted or photographed professionally. This adds value to the finished piece in a way that respects the sentiment of the occasion and the giver-whether it is a birthday, an anniversary, a sporting achievement or any other milestone. Design Is the Key to Value Whether it's a wedding anniversary plaque, an award or a travel souvenir, good design is what separates the valuable from the forgettable.

Design is what turns a simple novelty item into a piece of art-something people are proud to display.
With the costs of equipment and materials required to create 3D crystal engraving products, it makes more sense to aim for the most added value for the finished product.
This is what good designs accomplish-the confidence of knowing that the final product is perceived to be valuable enough for display in a special place in a home or office, without having worry that they will end up unsold, or consigned to the dustbin or the garage sale box.

What Artists Do Talent, knowledge and skill are most obviously apparent in original 3D crystal engraving designs-whether they are realistic objects or interpretations and renderings of complex, conceptual ideas.

With their ability to render images in more than one medium and work with different materials, artists can harness what is best about certain materials in order to allow the designs to work with their intrinsic qualities.

In the case of crystal engravings, this includes how light and shadow can be used in order to make the images stand out. Even in creating three-dimensional designs from existing images, such as in the case of two-dimensional photos from clients, the distinct art and craftsmanship from a professional artist will yield superior work from concept to the finished engravable designs.
