Encaustic painting is an ancient technique created by the Greeks. It uses melted wax, originally bees wax mixed with pigments and then altered using resin, originally crystallized tree resin. It gives a very brilliant and long lasting effect. The wax with the pigment is applied to the canvas, wood or plaster and then heat is passed over the surface to create a uniform film. Resin is applied to alter the consistency is necessary. The wax is built up in layers and heated every time to give a rich optical effect and is time consuming and laborious.

An artist during the middle ages would choose another medium over encaustic painting because of how time consuming and laborious it is to do.

Their points of view. Artists will go far to prove their points by using symbolism, poetry, all that good stuff. Like this for Example: you see an overly exaggerated crow in a small cage. The artist is conveying he/she is  stuck in a boring life with a lot of rules (An edgy dude would make something like that). Something like that, I guess. hoped this help if it did please make me brainliest

make a list of 10 specific examples of improvements in The New South during this post-Reconstruction period.
choli [55]

Answer:

Proponents of the New South envisioned a post-Reconstruction southern economy modeled on the North’s embrace of the Industrial Revolution.

Henry W. Grady, a newspaper editor in Atlanta, Georgia, coined the phrase the "New South” in 1874. He urged the South to abandon its longstanding agrarian economy for a modern economy grounded in factories, mines, and mills.

Although textile mills and tobacco factories emerged in the South during this time, the plans for a New South largely failed. By 1900, per-capita income in the South was forty percent less than the national average, and rural poverty persisted across much of the South well into the twentieth century.
