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.

Acrylic, a paint that adapts

Acrylic paint and its design

Acrylic is a paint whose solvent is largely composed of water. It is made from a mixture of pigments and acrylic resin and dries by evaporation of the water it contains.

The American printers Leonard Bocour and Sam Golden invented a first version of acrylic paint and put it on sale in 1949. Subsequently, the chemist Henry Levinson created artistic acrylic paint in 1963, diluted in water. Painters such as Andy Warhol and David Hockney used it very quickly. In Mexico, it was also designed around 1950. Chemists, in collaboration with Mexican mural painters, developed it during the creation of frescoes on the facades of the University of Mexico.

Description
canvas on frame 50 cm / 70 cm 🌸 The soul of Japan 🌸: this canvas represents, in my opinion, two emblematic figures of Japan. 🏵️First of all, you should know that when they appeared in the early 1710s, geishas were mainly men and it was from 1800 that women invested the environment and obtained an official status with a regulation of their activities in 1779. 🏵️The geishas then dedicated their lives to artistic practice. Being ladies-in-waiting, they were responsible for entertaining their clients with song, dance, music and conversation. 🏵️Concerning the samurai, it appeared in the 10th century. This elite class of Japanese warriors performing military service for the nobles. They wore this particular and intriguing armor and followed a code of honor: - righteousness - courage - benevolence - respect - sincerity - honor - loyalty
