Creative art on balloons

There is no true celebration without balloons. The mere look of balloons brings joy and happiness to everyone regardless of their age. Party Balloons can be created in various forms and designs and there is no end to the art work done with balloons. All you need is imagination and creativity and artistic balloons can be designed in a moment. Balloons can be transformed into anything you see, be it a car, puppy, clown, fruit basket, flower pot, archways, columns, centerpieces and the ideas are endless. Beautification with balloons is an art and not everyone can master this art. People who are trained and have relevant experience in balloon art and sculpture could only design breathtaking pieces with balloons.

The artistry in balloon fascinates children and adult alike. Another form of balloon art work that enthralls everyone is balloon modeling or balloon twisting as it is called. Twisting and turning balloons are a couple of techniques which are inherently used in balloon modeling. Most of the balloon decorators who create balloon animals or sculptures are called twisters. Some twisters make models out of one balloon, while others may use multiple balloons. Both require great skill and expertise. Some use additional technique like weaving and stuffing to make balloon art more appealing.

Balloon twisting is done using two colored balloons. Balloons of varied shapes are used for balloon twisting. They are inflated using electric pumps or by simply blowing air manually. A professional balloon decorator uses inflating pumps since it is an impossible task to blow air into these party balloons manually. Unlike for floating balloons, twisters fill theirs with nitrogen instead of helium as there is no need for the models to float in the air. They are used for art work and hence have to remain in shape.

Lately balloon art has become a predominant style of decoration for most of the parties and special occasions. Art balloons can make a party colorful and trendy, it is both entertaining and appealing to watch different figures and character pieces made out of balloons.
