Art Techniques

Art techniques are methods artists use to create visual effects and convey ideas. These include brushwork styles, such as smooth blending or bold strokes, and various mediums like oil, watercolor, or acrylic. Techniques also involve composition, perspective, shading, and texture to add depth and realism. Artists may employ layering, glazing, or impasto to build dimension, or experiment with color mixing and contrasts to evoke mood. Mastering these techniques allows artists to express emotions, tell stories, and explore creative possibilities within their work.
