  2. the fine arts media • sketch to work of art • drawing is perhaps the most basic of media and has been practiced for over 35,000 years • drawing is fundamental to the human experience • from basic drawing techniques many different medias have been developed • each media has a unique set of methods yet, all are based on the principles of drawing • pigments and binders • media consists of a coloring agent (pigment) which is ground and mixed with a binder (solid or liquid) • drawing medias • metalpoint • chalk and charcoal • graphite • pastel • oilstick • pen and ink • wash and brush • printmaking • woodcut and wood engraving • linocut • intaglio • engraving • etching • drypoint • mezzotint and aquatint • lithography • silkscreen printing • monotype • painting • encaustic • fresco • tempera • oil painting • watercolor • gouache • acrylic chapter 9

  3. drawing materials • metalpoint • a stylus (point) made of a metal is applied to a sheet of paper • best for delineation (outlines and contour lines) • chalk and charcoal • soft media which is very expressive • creates modulation of lights and darks • found as vine, stick or pencil • graphite • a soft form of carbon • produced in different levels of hardness to create different values chapter 9

  4. drawing materials • pastel • chalk medium with color pigment and a nongreasy binder • the harder the binder the less intense the color • similar to charcoal in that it is very expressive and blends easily • oilstick • oil paint manufactured with enough wax for the paint to be molded • very vibrant colors • other colored media • conte crayon • wax crayon • colored pencil chapter 9

  5. drawing materials • pen & ink • originally made with iron-gall ink and applied with a goose-feather or other quill • today india ink is applied by a holder and pen-nib • because india ink is a wet media it can also be applied with a brush • when mixed with water it is lighter, creating tinted-grays; this is called applying a wash chapter 9

  7. methods & techniques

  8. printmaking • relief processes • matrix: the surface on which a design is cut • wood cut: a design is drawn on a block of wood and then parts are gouged or cut away with a knife • wood engraving: fine narrow grooves are cut into the block and do not hold ink • linocut: similar to woodcut; linoleum blocks are used instead • editioning: printing multiple copies of the same image japanese woodcuts chapter 10

  9. printmaking • intaglio processes • the surface of a metal plate is cut into, rolled with ink, and then a piece of paper is pressed onto the plate with a heavy roller forcing the ink from the plate into the paper • engraving: pushing a burin across the surface removing slivers of the metal • etching: the metal plate is coated with a ground and then this ground is drawn upon; this is then set in an acid bath which eats into the unprotected areas • drypoint: similar to engraving, a point carves into the surface of the plate • mezzotint: a rocker leaves a burr all over the plate and then carved away chapter 10

  10. printmaking • other manners • lithography: based on the principle that grease and water do not mix; acid cuts into the surface of a stone and then used to print • silkscreen printing: a screen is cut and is used essentially as a stencil • monotypes: paint or ink is applied a plate and then pressed onto a paper under a roller; only can be made once chapter 10

  11. the critical process • thinking about printmaking • printmaking allows for the reproduction of an image so that it can be editioned or repeated • Andy Warhol, Marilyn Monroe, 1967 • What does it mean to be an image? • How does color affect the meaning of works? • Why do you think Warhol resorts to such garish, bright coloration? • How does this challenge mainstream America? chapter 10

  12. painting • early painting practices • encaustic: combining pigment with hot wax • fresco: pigment mixed with limewater and then applied to wet plaster; popular for wall murals • tempera: combining pigment with a gummy material, usually egg yolk • gesso: made from glue and plaster; used to create vibrant, white surfaces chapter 11

  13. painting • painting media • oil: more versatile than tempera, allowing the artist to create continuous blends of hues; render subtle changes • watercolor: is the most expressive; used originally as a sketching media it has subsequently become a final media • gouache: essentially watercolor mixed with white chalk; unlike watercolor it is opaque • acrylic: because of the preparation needed for oil, acrylic offers a suitable substitute and wider range of vibrant colors chapter 11

  14. the critical process • thinking about painting • throughout history, artists have favored painting medias because these medias offer the widest range of colors, of blending, of rendering realism and for expression • painting medias represent the world most faithfully • Fred Tomaselli, Airborne Event, 2003 • Why are some painting medias more suited for expressiveness? • How are mixed-media works and collage works similar to painting? • How does Tomaselli’s work depict an artificial world? chapter 10
