A GUIDE TO PAINTING BASICS......

A GUIDE TO PAINTING BASICS.
  Painting can be defined as a mode of creative expression and can be seen as the practice of applying paint pigments, color or other medium to a solid face with the aid of brush or other implements.
Painting can also be naturalistic and representational i.e (In a still life or landscape painting).
A portion of the history of painting in both Eastern and Western Art is demonstrated by spiritual motifs and ideas.

  In Art, painting describes both the act and the results of the action. The term painting is also used outside art as a common trade among builders and craftsmen.

  Painting can be done in a variety of media. For examples; Oils, Watercolors, Tempera, Gouache, and acrylics. Paints are made from a pigment and a binder. Binder is relatively cheap, While pigments is much more expensive. Pigments are colored powder, made from organic or inorganic materials.

  Besides quality of paint, there are so many other factors which can affect color quality, which includes; Paint Opacity, Glossiness of Painting Surface, Lighting, Transparency and Texture. All paint use the basic pigments but the binder changes. The binder for acrylics dries more quickly and then the paint is more like a plastic than oil which have an oil based binder and dry slowly. Oil paints are often built up in layers or glazes. The other paints - Watercolor, Acrylics, Gouache and Tempera are water based. Meaning that the paint can be diluted with water and clean up can be done with soap and water. Oil paints, on the other hand requires paint thinner to clean brushes. The number and variety of painting technique is endless.
