Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Contemporary painting

From prehistoric times to today, painting remains an inexhaustible source of inspiration for artists around the world. In addition to representing a field of contemporary art, it constitutes a means of expression with multiple forms. Indeed, the brushstrokes illustrated on a painting hide a concept or a subject. Whatever the theme you are looking for, ARTactif presents a wide range of contemporary paintings.

Contemporary art, contemporary painting: what is it about?

According to chronology, contemporary art follows modern art which was initiated between 1850 and 1945 by the impressionist movement. Contemporary art is therefore any artistic movement born after the Second World War. Pop art, graffiti art, Fluxus, Street art and digital art are examples.

Description
The black and white watercolor shows an attractive middle-aged woman whose short hair gently frames her face. Lost in a dreamlike world, her upper body is relaxed in the photo. His hand rests gently on her cleavage, as if gently stroking her own skin, while her eyes are closed and her mouth slightly open. The woman's facial expression conveys the image of a reverie in which she dreams of the intense and mysterious experiences of the previous night. Black and white tones give the image a gentle, timeless elegance, while the watercolor medium subtly highlights soft transitions and shadows. The play of light and shadow around the face and cleavage creates depth and makes the woman quickly seem tangible, while her dreamy facial expression gives the image a mysterious and intimate atmosphere.
