Question

Compare some of the different mediums artists use to make work. What artistic medium do you see the most often? Have you seen any artwork made with surprising materials?

Answer 1

Answer: Artists use different mediums to make art, and they often specialize in a particular medium throughout their careers, although their style might change over time.

Explanation:

When drawing, they often use ink or pencils. Paintinters use watercolor, acrylic, pastel, and pencils as well. Sculptures are made of glass, stone, clay, aluminum, wood, or any three-dimensional material.

Paintings in watercolor are the kind of medium most often seen.

However, modern art installations have added new mediums. Such is the case of the Korean artist Choi Jeong Hwa. He uses different recycled waste items to build public artworks, like a colossal fish puppet made from plastic bags and buildings made from old doors.
