As an artist, how would you decide which medium you are going to use? Would it depend more on the subject of your art piece or t
he tone (feeling) you hope to create – or something else entirely? Can you think of any other mediums that you know of that were not discussed in the unit?
As an Artist I think it depends on which piece of art it is and how you feel. Personally I like charcoal. On art medium they don't really talk about is oil paintings. They don't like teaching it because it a more complex medium.They mainly focus on acrylic paintings.
Well, different mediums are good for getting different feelings across. For example, I would use charcoal for a more emotional/ dark piece and watercolor for a more elegant piece. So I would say it depends on the emotion, for me atleast.
Line. The most basic element of art is line, and if you look at a painting by Van Gogh, you will see that he used dabs and strokes of paint to show emotion and movement.
