PAINTING
Painting continues to be a popular, and relevant art medium. It has been used by artists for
thousands of years. But painting is really just a general category. There are specific types of paint
you need to know.
Fresco is water-based pigment painted onto wet plaster. It is what Michelangelo used for the
Sistine Chapel, and what Diego Rivera used for his celebrated murals.
Oil was perfected in Renaissance, and was especially good for painting lifelike people. It is still a a
popular medium used by all types of painters.
Acrylic was not invented until the 20th Century, and it was not until the 1960s that it became
widely available for artists to use.
Encaustic is pigmented, molten wax. You must apply the liquid wax while it is hot. This is an
ancient medium used more recently by the famous American painter, Jasper Johns.
Watercolor is transparent, water-based paint usually applied to paper. It is enjoyed for its fresh,
spontaneous qualities.
There are other paints too, such as egg tempera (made with egg yolk), casein (milk paint),
gouache (an opaque watercolor), enamel (a shiny, flat paint, the same as nail polish) and
distemper (glue paint).
As you look at paintings in person, online, and your textbook, pay attention to the painting
medium and how and why the artist may have chosen it. Each type of paint has its own qualities.
