6. Paintings
The art of creating meaningful effects on a flat surface by the use of pigment.
Pigment- substance used for coloring

7. Types of Painting Oil painting Methods:
The pigment are place in the oil
Surface used is usually canvas although other surface like wood, proper and metal may be used.
Pigments of oil come from many source.
Methods:
Direct- painting are opaque and are applied to the surface just as they are to look in the finished product.
Indirect- the painting is applied in many thin layers of transparent color.

8. Well-Know Artist Carlos “Botong” Francisco Norma Belleza Jose Joya
“Maria Makiling” the woodland nymph of Mt. Makiling in the province of Laguna.
Norma Belleza
“Sari-Sari” was produced in 1979
Jose Joya
“Red Talisman” painted in 1975

9. Tempera Painting
Before oils were in general use, a type of painting called Tempera was popular.
It is usually done on a wooden panel that has been made smooth with a coating of plaster.
It dries rapidly
Have a little blending or fusing of colors

10. Famous Artist Bernardo Fungai Unvarnished Tempera Varnished Tempera
“Resurrection with two angels” and “ Majesty”
Dimensions of Tempera
Unvarnished Tempera
One paints with water or thinned emulsion on a dampened or dried ground.
Varnished Tempera
Some colors may appear glaring and other may stand out in a very unpleasant way
Gouache-Like Tempera
Opaque colors mixed with water and gum.

11. Water Color Painting Not easy to make
Require a high degree of technical dexterity.
Pigments are mixed with water and applied to fine white paper.
Colors are applied with thin layers.
Paper is the commonly used ground. Other materials like parchment, ivory, silk, and cambric are also used as ground.

12. Pastel Painting More recent medium Possesses only surfaces of light
Gives no glazed effect
Most closely resembles dry pigment
The pigment is bound so as to form a crayon which is applied directly to the surface usually paper
Very flexible in medium
Varied effects may produced in pastel painting

13. Fresco Painting Disadvantages of Fresco Most popular
Color are mixed with water and applied to fresh plaster which absorbs the color
It lost until the wall is destroyed
In Italian “Fresco” means fresh and is used to designate the process of painting in fresh wet plaster.
Disadvantages of Fresco
Impossible to move a Fresco
The painting is subject to the disasters that may happen to the wall of which it has become a part.

14. Acrylic Painting Famous Artist Mario Parial Rodolfo Paras Perez
Newest medium
One that is used widely by painters today
Synthetic paints using acrylic emulsion as binder
Completely insoluble when dry and can be used almost on any surface
Do not tend to crack, and turn yellow with age.
Famous Artist
Mario Parial
“Sisa”
Rodolfo Paras Perez
“Anting-Anting”
Jose Joya
“Blue Odyssey”

15. Architecture Art of designing and constructing a building.
It fulfill a need that led to its creation. Since they needs different periods in history varied
Availability of materials of materials is often also an important factor in architecture
It must be durable and beautiful

16. Choices of Materials Post-and-lintel The earliest of the three
Consists of two vertical posts for support (post), and a horizontal one (lintel).
Generally used for wooden buildings.
Examples:
Parthenon of Athens, Greece. ( B.C.)

17. Arch voussoirs Dominant in Roman architecture
Built from pieces of wood called voussoirs with joint between them and are arranged in a semi-circle
Materials are in compression
Dome is an extension of the principle of the arch.
voussoirs

18. Cantilever
Structural part projecting horizontally and anchored at one end only.
Need a beam with a great tensile strength that can be securely fastened at the supported end
Utilized largely in buildings with steel as a medium
Used of skyscrapers

19. Materials Uses Wood Stone Steel Common building material today
Relative durability, high tensile, abundance, and compression strength
Easy to destroy
Stone
Mostly of the great architecture of the world where permanence is desired
High compressive strength
Doesn’t easily crumble or break down when subjected
Steel
Great demand today
Tough alloy of iron in variable amounts
It help the architect to make many building of the present day
