Oil & Acrylic Paintings

One of the first questions that come up when talking about painting is what medium is used. The three main choices are acrylics, oils and watercolours.

The difference between oils and acrylics

Oil paints have survived for hundreds of years, so their long-lasting quality is well established and known. They do tend to discolour with age, but that is no worry when it comes to such illustrations in oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper as these will not fade. Another important factor to consider when choosing an oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper is colourr. Oil paintings usually have more pigment in them, allowing richer, more vivid colours while acrylics may darken slightly as they dry. Nonetheless, this is not an issue when picking an oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper for your space, as these can all be adjusted to your liking, interior design and other colour schemes present in the room you have chosen to fix up.

Defining contemporary art with oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper

To make it short, contemporary art is essentially art that has been and continues to be created during our lifetime. Of course, this can vary with age of the person in question, like if you are quite old, there is a certain amount of overlap between contemporary and modern art in your lifetime. Nonetheless, the oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper selection caters to both camps, but there has to be some distinction for the art aficionados. To make it clear, modern art is art from the era of the impressionists, which is around 1880 up until the 1960s or 1970s. Contemporary art is art from the 60s up until right now, in your lifetime. While classification can be a tad difficult, oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper in particular is collectively said to be much more socially conscious than any previous era in art has been. A piece such as AURA Transition can be an oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper that might seem vague but can actually be interpreted for many such issues, such as our disconnect from the real world in the age of technology.

Oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper as means of self-expression

As already noted, the best work of art to display is one that speaks to you and you can speak freely about. The elusive but very crucial personal touch can set your interior design apart and make you stand out. Oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper can help you tremendously in that you just have to find the right fit in terms of motif. We all know that painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, colour or other mediums to a solid surface. It is definitely one of the important forms in the visual arts, which makes oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper a staple in the arsenal of any great interior designer. Oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper, just like paintings in real life, can be naturalistic and representational, such as still life or landscape painting. There are, however, many other forms of it such as photographic, abstract, narrative, symbolistic, emotive, or even political in nature. Take something like AURA Super Nova, an oil & acrylic paintings wallpaper that veers between all those distinctions but still makes a powerful impact on the viewer.
