Art is an interesting part of life. At least, it allows one to be wild. Egyptian artwork is an interesting one. It depicts death and the "life" after. Some people believe that Egyptians are full of hallucinations. However, a keen eye will disagree with this idea. Some pictures show heads of musicians. Others show women melting perfumed wax. The scent goes into their hair to give a nice smell.

An interesting picture depicts life in form of a tree. The birds on the tree are used to show the different stages that a human goes through. There are various colors that are used to show the various stages. Orange is for the old. Grey is for the infants. Birds that are related to old age are drawn facing the west. This is a sign of nearing death. Those that are related to the early stages of life face the east.

Queens

The above idea is based on the rising and the setting of the sun. Egyptian artwork is not related to the period of pharaoh or the pyramids. However, there are three and two dimensional images that show a relationship between the gods and the dead. These pictures are available in museums and books. They are flexible enough to be applied in modern artwork.

Egyptian artwork also shows kings, queens and common people. The art is based on using symbols to represent human actions. The culture of the Egyptians is vividly brought out in these pictures. The artists who drew the pictures followed strict guidelines. The good thing is that in each picture, each artist has his own personal touch displayed.
