(4)Beautiful Painting...

Painting is one of masterpiece that usually we heard as it is a famous art. Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a surface (support base). The usual medium that we applied to the base is a brush but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, also can be used. Paintings also have their support surfaces such as walls, paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer, clay, leaf, copper or concrete, and may include multiple other materials including sand, clay, paper, gold leaf as well as objects.
In art, the term painting describes both the act and the result of the action. However, the term is also used outside of art as a common trade among craftsmen and builders. Here are some type of painting that famous among the people and gets their attention:

Painting Media

Oil

Oil painting is the process of painting with pigments that are bound with a medium. Often oil was boiled with a resin such as pine resin or even frankincense, these were called 'varnishes' and give result for their body and gloss. Oil paint eventually became the principal medium used for creating artworks as its advantages became widely known.

Pastel

Pastel is a painting medium in the form of a stick, consisting of pure powdered pigment and a binder. The pigments used in pastels are the same as those used to produce all colored art media, including oil paints. The color effect of pastels is closer to the natural dry pigments than that of any other process. Because the surface of a pastel painting is fragile and easily smudged, its preservation requires protective measures such as framing under glass.
Acrylic
Water Lilies by Shawn Gould 2004
Acrylic paint is fast drying paint containing pigment suspension in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints can be diluted with water, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted (with water) or modified with acrylic gels, media, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media.

Spray Paint

Aerosol paint (also called spray paint) is a type of paint that comes in a sealed pressurized container and is released in a fine spray mist when depressing a valve button. A form of spray painting, aerosol paint leaves a smooth, evenly coated surface. Standard sized cans are portable, inexpensive and easy to store. Aerosol primer can be applied directly to bare metal and many plastics. Lets Enjoy this spray paint video, it's truly awesome...


Water Miscible Oil Paint

Water miscible oil paints (also called "water soluble" or "water-mixable") is a modern variety of oil paint engineered to be thinned and cleaned up with water, rather than having to use chemicals such as turpentine. It can be mixed and applied using the same techniques as traditional oil-based paint, but while still wet it can be effectively removed from brushes, palettes, and rags with ordinary soap and water. Its water solubility comes from the use of an oil medium in which one end of the molecule has been altered to bind loosely to water molecules, as in a solution.

     Some arts can become valuable because of the way of painting and depends on its own styles of painting that refer to the method that reflect an individual artist's work. We love to watch some people's art because we love to see something that beautiful and full of creativity, isn't it?:)
