  1. Week 2 Slideshow Pt. 2

  2. Acrylic • Most synthetic painting media • Fast drying and flexible • Water-thinned, yet water resistant

  3. Encaustic • Pigments suspended in hot beeswax • Egypt – painted directly on wooden coffins • Used only by a few painters today

  4. “Portrait” of a Boy” found in Fayum

  5. Fresco • Painted directly into the wall • Damp lime-plaster surface • Painter works quickly n a rapid staining process • Lime forms transparent calcium crystals that chemically bind pigment to moist lime plaster wall • Aging deepens and enriches the colors – 50-100 years • Luminous color, fine surface, and permanent color make this medium ideal for large murals

  6. Fresco • 12-14 straight hours to complete 2 square yards of the fresco • Favored medium during Renaissance – much on church walls • Secco Fresco • Dry fresco • Done on finished, dried lime plaster wall • Tempera paint applied to dry, clean surface or over an already completed fresco

  7. “Detroit Industry” by Diego Rivera in 1932

  8. Printmaking • Making multiple copies of a single image • Newspapers, books, posters, magazines, greetings • AP = artist proof

  9. Relief Printmaking • Cut away parts that do not carry the ink • Woodcut, wood engraving, linoleum cut • Rubber stamps, fingerprints, tires

  10. “The Wave” by Katsushika Hokusai; 1830

  11. “Prophet” by Emil Nolde; 1912

  12. “Sharecropper” by Elizabeth Catlett

  13. Intaglio • Opposite of relief • Areas below the surface hold ink • Intaglio  Italian word “itagliare” – to cut into • Cut or scratch in surface with steel or diamond tipped tools • Printer daubs plate with ink then wipes the surface clean, leaving ink in only etched areas • Damp paper placed on ink plate; paper picks up ink

  14. Engraving • Lines cut into polished surface of the plate with a burin (engraving tool) • Takes strength and control

  15. “The Knight, Death and the Devil” by Albrecht Durer

  16. Drypoint • Similar to line engraving • Artist digs line into soft copper or zinc • Displayed matel leaves a burr, or rough edge, when printed, leaves a blurred line

  17. Etching • Preparing metal with acid • Ground - resistant material that covers the copper or zinc • Draws through the ground with tool, exposing the metal • Etched lines are more easily produced • Aquatint – etching process used to obtain shaded areas in black and white or color prints

  18. “Christ Preaching” by Rembrandt; 1652

  19. Screen Printing • Use squeegee; paint; cut outs of plastic
