Fresco Technique

Fresco is an ancient painting technique where pigments are applied directly onto freshly laid wet plaster. As the plaster dries, the pigments become fused to the surface, creating a durable and vibrant image. This method requires working quickly before the plaster sets, making it both a challenge and an art form. Fresco was often used for large murals and is admired for its longevity and resilience, with many centuries-old examples still intact today. The technique emphasizes a seamless integration of color and wall surface, resulting in immersive, lasting artworks.
