Painting: Adding Color To Depict Some Inner ConceptsNaturalistic Or Representative It is common to find paintings that are naturalistic or which are representative or which are photographic or even abstract and which may even are symbolic and depict emotions or even can make political statements. In fact, a major part of the history of painting deals with motifs that are spiritual in nature and it is also quite usual to see many mythological works that refer to scenes from the Bible which have been painted on walls and ceilings such as those of The Sistine Chapel. This art form is also a depiction of perception as well as represents some inner intensity in the minds and hearts of painters, with different points in space being different in their intensity and which may either are black and white compositions or colored. In fact, it would not be out of place to liken color and tone as being the very essence of painting just like rhythm and pitch are for music. In fact, notable painters and writers and scientists have even gone so far as to create their own theories of color. The oldest paintings that are known to man are without a doubt the Grotte Chauvet that was found in France, and according to some historians date back to more than thirty-two thousand years ago. These paintings are engraved as well as painted in red ochre along with black pigments and depict animals such as rhinos, horses, lions and buffaloes being hunted by humans. In fact, all across the world there are several other examples of cave paintings which can be found in diverse countries ranging from France to China to Australia and many other countries. In any case, the main intention of making paintings are to make them visually aesthetic and it was more or less the norm in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries though there were differences in approach such as those of the famous paintings of artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci, who begged to differ and considered painting to be a form of intellectual thinking rather than dealing with the science of beauty. |
