PAINTING

• The expression of ideas and emotions, with the creation of certain aesthetic qualities, in a two-dimensional visual language.

• An artist’s decision to use a particular medium, such as tempera, fresco, oil, acrylic, watercolour or other water-based paints, ink, gouache, encaustic, or casein

• The pigment may be in a wet form, such as paint, or a dry form, such as pastels.

• Painting can also be a verb, the action of creating such an artwork.

Need to Know:• Pigment: Nearly all paint colors come from nature. Dirt, rock, plants, etc. are the raw material, which is ground down into what is called a pigment.

•Acrylic Paint: A thick shiny paint made by mixing pigment with water and an acrylic base. Dries within a few hours.

• Poster Paint: A solid water-based paint that dries to a matt finish.

• Fresco: The word is Italian for "fresh". The technique involves painting with dry pigment on wet plaster. Fresco a secco involves painting on dry plaster.

•Oil Paint: A thick, shiny paint made by mixing pigment with oil (usually linseed). Takes several days to dry.

• Tempera: A water-based paint that may or may not be mixed with egg yolks (egg tempera).

•Watercolor: A soft and see-through (transparent) paint made from pigment, water and gum Arabic.  

BRIEFHISTORY OF PHILIPPINE PAINTING

• Artistic paintings were introduced to the Filipinos in the 16th century when the Spaniards arrived in the Philippines.

• the Spaniards used paintings as religious propaganda to spread Catholicism throughout the Philippines. These paintings, appearing mostly on church walls, featured religious figures appearing in Catholic teachings.

• In the early 19th century, wealthier, educated Filipinos introduced more secular Filipino art, causing art in the Philippines to deviate from religious motifs.

ELEMENTS

• The elements of painting are the basic components or building blocks of a painting (and art generally). In Western art they are generally considered to be:

• Color

• Tone (or value)

• Line (a narrow mark made by a brush, or a line created where two things meet)

• Shape (2D, can be positive or negative) and Form (3D)

• Space (or volume)

• Texture (or pattern)

Color

• is the most basic element of a painting. Every color has three aspects to it: hue or name, value or tone, and intensity.

• Hue – Pure Color (Red, Blue…..).

• Value – Amount of Black or White in color.

• Intensity – Degree of Purity of color.

Tone

• refers to the degree of lightness or darkness of an area. 

• Tone varies from the bright white of a light source through shades of gray to the deepest black shadows. 

Line

• Is used to control our eye, create unity and balance. Help construct meanings.

• Line can be described as a moving dot.  Line is perhaps the most basic element of drawing.

Shape

• an element of art that is a two-dimensional area that is defined in some way.  A shape may have an outline around it or you may recognize it by its area.

•Geometric shapes - precise shapes that can be described using mathematical formulas.  Ex. Circle, square, triangle, oval, rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, pentagon, pentagram, hexagon, and octagon.

• Freeform Shapes - also called organic shapes, are irregular and uneven shapes.  Their outlines may be curved, angular, or a combination of both

• Form - an element of art, means objects that have three dimensions.  I like to think of form as a 3-D shape

Space

• Is the area around, above, and within an object.  With consideration to drawings and paintings, our goal is to create the illusion of space.

Six (6) ways an artist can create the illusion of space on a 2-Dimensional surface.

•Overlapping  - occurs when objects that are closer to the viewer prevent the view of objects that are behind them.

• Placement on the paper - Objects placed higher within the picture plane will appear further away.

• Size - Objects that are smaller will appear further away from the viewer.

• Detail - Objects that are further away should have less detail than objects that are closer to the viewer.

• Color and Value - Objects that are further away are lighter in value, while objects that are closer are typically darker in value.

• Perspective - Linear perspective is a drawing method that uses lines to create the illusion of space on a flat surface.

Texture • Implied – suggested roughness or smoothness of objects in the composition.

• Real – what it would feel like if you touch it.

TYPES OF PAINTING

• Landscape is an outdoor scene. A landscape artist uses paint to create not only land, water, and clouds but air, wind, and sunlight.

• Portrait is an image of a person or animal. Besides showing what someone looks like, a portrait often captures a mood or personality.

• Still life shows objects, such as flowers, food, or musical instruments. A still life reveals an artist's skill in painting shapes, light, and shadow.

•Real Life scene captures life in action. It could show a busy street, a beach party, a dinner gathering, or anyplace where living goes on.

•Religious work of art shares a religious message. It might portray a sacred story or express an artist's faith
