    Medium and Techniques

    ‣ A MEDIUM IS THE MATERIAL THAT ARTISTS USE TO CREATE


    THEIR ART.
    ‣ THE PLURAL OF MEDIUM IS MEDIA.
    ‣ ONE PIECE OF ART CAN BE MADE OF ONE MEDIUM OR
    SEVERAL MEDIA.

    EXAMPLE:
    ‣ OIL ON CANVAS
    ‣ TEMPERA ON WOOD
    ‣ INK ON SILK
    The Artist and His Medium
    ‣ Artistic medium is a term that is used by artists and art critics
    to refer to that out of which a work of art or, more generally, a
    particular art form, is made.
    ‣ Ink, glass, watercolor, oil paint, tempera, bronze, and marble .

    The Artist and His Technique


    ‣ Technique is the manner in which the artist controls his
    medium to achieve the desired effects. Apparently, artist’s
    differ from one another in technique even if they use the same
    medium.
    Medium of the Visual Arts
    ‣ Visual arts are those arts that are perceived with our eyes. The
    most common visual arts are painting, sculpture, and
    architecture.

    Painting
    ‣ Painting is the art of creating meaningful effects on a flat
    surface by the use of pigments.
    ‣ Different mediums are used in painting.
    ‣ The materials of the painter are pigments applied to wet
    plaster, canvas, wood, or paper.
    Mediums of
    Painting
    Watercolor

    Watercolor as a medium is
    difficult to handle because it
    is difficult to produce warm
    and rich tones but it invites
    brilliance and a variety of
    hues.
    Fresco

    This is painting on the moist


    plaster surface with colors
    ground in water or lime
    water mixture. The colors
    dry into plaster, and the
    picture becomes a part of
    the wall. Most Frescos must
    MICHELANGELO’S be done quickly because it’s
    “THE CREATION OF ADAM”
    an exacting medium
    Tempera

    ‣ Tempera paints are mineral


    pigments mixed with egg yolk or egg
    white and ore. They are often used
    as binder due to its film forming
    properties and rapid drying rate and
    corrections are difficult to make.
    ‣ Usually done in wooden panel.
    ‣ Advantage of tempera is its
    luminous tone, the colors being
    clear and beautiful.
    Pastel

    Pastel sticks or crayons consist of


    powdered pigment combined with
    a binder. The exact composition
    and characteristics of an
    individual pastel stick depend on
    the type of pastel and the type and
    amount of binder used. It also
    varies by individual
    manufacturer.
    Oil Painting

    Oil painting is one of the most


    expensive art and one of the
    oldest mediums still regularly
    used in art. Moreover, pigments
    are mixed with linseed oil as a
    binder and applied to the canvas.

    LEONARDO DA VINCI’S
    “MONA LISA”
    Acrylic

    Acrylic is a medium used


    popularly by contemporary
    painters because of the
    transparency and quick-drying
    characteristics of water color
    and the flexibility of oil
    combined.
    Mosaic

    ‣ Mosaic art is a picture made of


    small pieces of inlaid colored
    stones or glass called “tesserae”.
    Which most often are cut into
    squares glued on a surface with
    plaster or cement.
    ‣ The pieces are usually solid and
    long-lasting, which is a unique
    SANDRA BRYANT’S
    feature.
    “AUTUMN LANDSCAPE”
    Stained Glass

    Stained glass as an
    artwork is common in
    Gothic cathedrals and
    churches. This is made by
    combining small pieces of
    colored class which are
    held together by bands of
    AUGSBURG CATHEDRAL,
    LATE 11TH CENTURY
    lead.
    Tapestry

    ‣ Tapestry is an artwork that


    uses fabric consisting of a wrap
    upon which colored threads are
    woven by hand to produce a
    design.
    ‣ Hung on the walls of palaces
    and in cathedrals on festive
    occasions.
    CHARLES LE BRUN’S
    “HISTOIRE DU ROI”
    Drawing

    ‣ Drawing is done on paper


    using pencil, pen, and ink,
    or charcoal.

    ‣ Shading can also be used


    to make drawing more life-
    like and realistic.
    LEONARDO DA VINCI'S
    HEAD OF A WOMAN (LA
    SCAPIGLIATA)
    Bistre

    ‣ Bistre is a brown pigment


    extracted from the soot of wood,
    and often used in pen and wash
    drawings.

    ‣ Frequently used in conjunction


    with pen and ink drawings as a
    wash.
    REMEMBRANDT'S
    “YOUNG WOMAN AT HER TOILETTE”
    Crayons

    Crayons are pigments bound


    by wax and compressed into
    painted sticks used for
    drawing especially among
    children in the elementary
    grades.
    Charcoal

    Charcoal is used in representing


    broad masses of light and
    shadow. Like drawing pencils,
    soft charcoal produces the
    darkest value, while the darkest
    produces the lightest tone.

    LEONEL CUNHA'S
    "THREE"
    Silverpoint

    The artist has a technique of


    drawing with silver stylus on
    specially prepared paper to
    produce a thin grayish line
    that was popular during the
    Renaissance period.
    Printmaking

    ‣ A print is anything printed on


    a surface that is a direct result
    from a duplicating process.
    ‣ Advantage: making many
    copies of the original artwork.
    ‣ Woodcut, engraving, relief,
    intaglio, and stencil process.
    Printmaking: Woodcut
    ‣ This is made from a piece of wood. Woodcuts can
    be identified because of their firm, clear and black
    lines.

    Printmaking: Engraving
    ‣ This is the art of forming designs by cutting and
    corrosion by acids.
    ‣ The lines of the design are cut into a metal plate
    with ink and transferred from the plate to the
    paper. Example, "The Enraged Musicians".
    Printmaking: Relief
    ‣ Relief painting involves cutting away from a block
    of wood or linoleum the parts of the parts of the
    design that the artist wants to be seen, leaving the
    portion of the third dimension.

    Printmaking: Intaglio
    ‣ Intaglio is a printing process in which the design or
    the text is engraved into the surface of the place and
    the ink is transferred to paper and an incised line
    can be easily noticed on the artwork.
    Printmaking: Stencil Painting
    ‣ It is a process which involves cutting of the design on
    special paper cardboard or metal sheet in such a way that
    when the ink is rubbed over it, the design is reproduced
    on the surface.
