á uil painting is the process of
painting with pigments that are
bound with a medium of drying
oil³especially in early modern
Europe, linseed oil. uften an oil
such as linseed was boiled with
a resin such as pine resin or
even frankincense; these were
called 'varnishes' and were
prized for their body and gloss

á |astel 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 binder is of
a neutral hue and low saturation. The
color effect of pastels is closer to the
natural dry pigments than that of any
other process
 

á Ycrylic paint is fast drying paint
containing pigment suspension in
acrylic polymer emulsion. Ycrylic
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.

á ÿatercolor is a painting
method in which the paints are
made of pigments suspended in a
water soluble vehicle. The traditional

watercolor paintings is paper; other
supports include papyrus, bark
papers, plastics, vellum or leather,
fabric, wood, and canvas.

composed of solvents, pigments,
dyes, resins, lubricants, solubilizers,
surfactants, particulate matter,
fluorescers, and other materials.
