ELEMENTS OF PAINTING

SUBJECT

This element answers what of the piece of painting. What is the painting about?

MEDIUM This refers to the materials used by the artist in his painting, which include among other fresco, in which pigment is mixed with water and applied to wet plaster; water color, which is a pigment mixed with water and applied to the surface of smooth or rough paper, generally white in color; oil which is done on canvas or prepared wood panel; and tempera, a mixing pigment with eggs and applying this on a very hard smooth surface, and usually several layers of rubbed plaster.Other Medias available are: pencil, charcoal, ink, and others.

Line - the visual path that enables the eye to move within the piece. Color - hues with their various values and intensities. Color is characterized by attributes such as hue, value, and saturation. It has been associated with different moods, dependent on the society of the time. For example, white has long been viewed as purity, whereas it can also take slightly different meanings such as peace, innocence and even death.

Texture - surface qualities which translate into tactile illusions.It is an element of two-dimensional and three-dimensional design and is broadly distinguished by its perceived visual and physical properties. Use of texture, along with other elements of design, can convey a variety of messages and emotions.

•Physical texture, also known as actual texture or tactile texture, are actual tactile variations upon a surface. This can include, but is not limited to, fur, wood grain, sand, smooth surface of canvas or metal, clay, glass and leather.

•Visual texture is the illusion of having physical texture. Photography, drawings and paintings use visual texture in order to portray their subject matter realistically or otherwise.

Perspective -expression of depth: foreground, middle ground, background.Perspective, in context of vision and visual perception, is the way in which objects appear to the eye based on their spatial attributes, or their dimensions and the position of the eye relative to the objects.

Archaeologists have also found a fragment of rock painting preserved in a limestone rock-shelter in the Kimberley region of North-Western Australia, that is dated 40 000 years old. [1]There are examples of cave paintings all over the world—in France, Spain, Portugal, China, Australia, India etc.

EXPRESSIONISM

The French artists behind Realistic and Naturalistic painting are Honor’s

Devonier (1808-1879). His paintings communicate ideas and at the same

time they are masterpieces of design, form, receding and advancing, planes and underlying patterns. His subjects are the real life of the poor people, the

washerwoman, the prostitute, the corrupt judge, and the venal attorney.

His genuine talent is shown to his work: the Laundress, Third Class

Coach, True Transnonian

Bonjour Monsieur Courbet (1819-1877) Best known as an innovator in Realism

(and credited with coining the term), Courbet was a painter of figurative

compositions, landscapes and seascapes.

He also worked with social issues, and addressed peasantry and the grave

working conditions of the poor. His work belonged neither to the predominant

Romantic nor Neoclassical schools. Rather, Courbet believed the Realist

artist's mission was the pursuit of truth, which would help erase social

contradictions and imbalances.

nineteenth century artists to approach modern-life subjects, he was a pivotal figure in the transition from Realism to

Impressionism.His early masterworks

The Luncheon on the Grass and Olympia engendered great

controversy, and served as rallying points for the young painters who

would create Impressionism. Today these are considered watershed

paintings that mark the genesis of modern art.
