| Oil painting is the process of painting with pigments that are bound with a medium of drying oil—especially in early modern Europe,nhl jerseys linseed oil. Often an oil such as linseed was boiled with a resin such as pine resin or even frankincense; these were called 'varnishes' and were prized for their body and gloss. Oil paint eventually became the principal medium used for creating artworks as its advantages became widely known. The transition began with Early Netherlandish paintingin northern Europe, cheap nfl jerseys and by the height of the Renaissance oil painting techniques had almost completely replaced temperapaints in the majority of Europe. Pastel is a painting medium in the form of a stick, consisting of pure powdered pigment and a binder.[9] The pigments used in pastels are the same as those used to produce all colored art media, including oil paints; the binder is of a neutral hue and low saturation. The color effect of pastels is closer to the natural dry pigments than that of any other process.[10] Because the surface of a pastel painting is fragile and easily smudged, its preservation requires protective measures such as framing under glass; it may also be sprayed with a fixative.ed hardy clothing Nonetheless, when made with permanent pigments and properly cared for, a pastel painting may endure unchanged for centuries. Pastels are not susceptible, as are paintings made with a fluid medium, to the cracking and discoloration that result from changes in the color, opacity, or dimensions of the medium as it dries.
Abstract painting uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world.[18] Abstract expressionism was an American post-World War II art movement which had a combination of the emotional intensity and self-denial of the GermanExpressionists with the anti-figurative aesthetic of the European abstract schools such as Futurism,luxury watches cheap,replica swiss watches the Bauhaus and Synthetic Cubism and the image of being rebellious, anarchic, highly idiosyncratic and, some feel, nihilistic.[19] Action painting, sometimes called "gestural abstraction", is a style of painting in which paint is spontaneously dribbled, splashed or smeared onto the canvas, rather than being carefully applied.[20] The resulting work often emphasizes the physical act of painting itself as an essential aspect of the finished work or concern of its artist. The style was widespread from the 1940s until the early 1960s,replica luxury watches and is closely associated with abstract expressionism (some critics have used the terms "action painting" and "abstract expressionism" interchangeably). |
