Abstraction
● Drawing – this is the most fundamental of all skills needed in the arts. All
designed objects are first visualized in drawing before they are actually made.
A drawing may be a study made for the sake of learning how to draw some forms
or as a means of investigating a particular detail of what may eventually become a
large com[position. It may be a sketch showing the general organization or design of
the product being planned. It may be a cartoon, such as the full – size work meant to
be a basis for some other work like a tapestry or a relief print. Or it may be a
finished work in itself.

Mediums in Drawing
● Pencil - Drawing can be done with various mediums. The most common of
these is pencil, the lead (graphite) of which comes in different hardness from soft to
smudgy to very hard and needlelike, making possible a wide range of values

Kinds of Pencil

Pencil Drawings
● Ink – one of the oldest materials still in use, allows for a great variety of
qualities, depending on the tools and techniques used in applying the ink and the
surfaces on which it is applied.
 India ink – comes in liquid form.

 Chinese ink – solid sticks that are dissolved in water before use.
 Bistre and sepia – two kinds of ink that artist use extensively. Bistre is gray-
brown ink made from the soot produced by burning some resinous wood, and sepia,
a strong dark brown ink, comes from the ink sacs of cuttlefish or squid.

Bistre drawing Sepia drawing

 Pen and ink drawings are characterized by precisely controlled and uniformly
wide lines. When done in combination with washes, they offer an interesting
contrast to the soft and shadowy quality of the wash background. Chinese ink
drawings, often executed on silk or rice paper with a brush, are either in
monochrome ink or in combination of ink lines and watercolor.

 Pastel and chalk – dry pigment held together with a gum binder and
compressed into sticks. Chalk is usually employed in preliminary sketches, As
finished work of art, these drawings are quite fragile and must be sprayed with a
fixative to prevent the pigment from rubbing off.

Charcoal – this is especially useful in representing broad masses of light and


shadow. Charcoal may just come from a burning twig or piece of wood, but in
modern manufacture, charcoal sticks or pencils are made from particles of carbon
mixed with a binder and compressed. Available in a wide range of hardness, they
can be used directly for crisp lines or rubbed to produce a dark surface, The softest
charcoal produces the darkest, most velvety tones, while the hardest produces the
lightest, grayest ones.

 Crayons – they are pigment bound by wax and compressed into sticks. They
adhere well to the paper surface but they do not lend themselves to rubbing to
achieve gradations in value.

 Silverpoint – popular during the Renaissance, is not in general use today. In


this medium, a silver-pointed instrument or a silver wire is drawn over a sheet of
paper prepared beforehand with zinc white. It then produces a thin, even, grayish
line that cannot be erased.

● Mosaic – This is related to painting only because it creates pictures on flat


surfaces. Mosaics are wall or floor decorations made od small cubes or irregularly
cut pieces of colored stones or glass called tesserae. These are fitted together to
form a pattern and glued on a surface with plaster or cement.
He traditional mosaic technique consisted in embedding individual tesserae
directly into a wall of damp mortar, following a well-planned design or cartoon. In the
modern process, the tesserae are glued with a special paste to sheets of paper on
which segments of the whole design have been drawn in reverse, These sheets are
pressed, tesserae side down, against the wet mortar freshly applied on the wall. The
temporary paper support is peeled or washed off when the mortar has set.
Mosaic art was an important feature of the Byzantine churches. A very famous
mosaic is that of Empress Theodora and her attendants, which can be found in the
church of San Vitale at Ravenna, Italy.
Examples of religious art in the Philippines done in mosaic are found at Sta. Cruz
Church in Manila and the Victorias church in Nrgros Occidental. The altat design at
Sta. Cruz Church shows a wounded white lamb, symbolozing Christ, stradlling a
stream that flows down to the tabernacle. The wall mosaic at the Victorias Church
depicts scenes fron the New Testament and shows Christ, May, Joseph and the
Apostles in the garb of Filipino paesants, The tesserae used are bits of glass from
beer, cold cream, and blue medicine bottles collected by workers of the sugar central
and their families.

● Stained Glass – developed as a major art when it appeared as an important part


of the Gothic cathedral. It served many purposes. Stained-glass windows admitted
the much-needed light that was missing from the Romanesque churches. By doing
this, they enlivened the otherwise tomblike interiors and introduced a bright and
warm atmosphere. They were also a means of religious instruction. Depicting
scenes from the Bible and from the lives of saints.
Stained glass derived its effects from the variations in the light that shines
through it. It is translucent glass colored by mixing metallic oxides into the molten
glass or by fixing them onto the surface of the clear glass. These pieces are finally
assembled into the desired image and held together by strips of lead. Because there
is a very sharp division of lines and colors, it is very difficult to achieve much
expressive detail in stained-glass windows. Big window panels are frequently
supported further by iron rods placed in the strategic positions.
The Sto. Domingo Church in Quezon City is well known for its lovely stained-
glass windows showing scenes from the famous Battle of La Naval.

● Tapestry – The walls of palaces, castles, and chapels in Europe were


decorated in the Middle Ages with hangings called tapestries. These hangings added
color to the drab interiors and also served to retain in the room whatever heat was
generated from the fireplace,
Tapestries are fabrics into which colored designs have been woven. In making
tapestry, the weaver closely follows a pattern, the actual size of the finished
tapestry, which is placed under the warp threads on the loom. A shuttle is employed
to weave each color thread used as weft over the area where color appears in the
pattern.

● Printmaking – A print is a graphic image that results from a duplicating process.


The technique of printmaking involves the preparation of s master image on a plate
made of wood, metal, or stone from which the impression is taken. Each print is
considered an original work, not a reproduction. Although often a facsimile of an
original work, a reproduction is usually a photo mechanically made image in the
making of which the original artist has no hand at all. Calendar pictures are
reproductions.
The making of prints was originally resorted in order to make many faithful
copies of a drawing. Today, printmaking has become an independent art; it is as
popular as painting and sculpture.

 Four major processes involved in printmaking:

● Relief Printing – involves cutting away from a block of wood or linoleum the
portions of the design that the artist does not want to show, leaving the design to
stand out of the block. The uncut, smooth surface is then covered with ink, which
under pressure, leaves an impression on paper or cardboard.
Color prints are made with separate block for each color, as in the Japanese
ukiyo-e. The artist must be careful to insure that the color is printed precisely on the
proper area.
For linocuts, linoleum is mounted on a block of wood and worked in the same
manner as a woodcut. Like the woodcut, the linocut does not allow for great detail in
the design. Both lend themselves to bold lines and wide areas of light and dark.

Wood cut ( Ukiyo-e) Hokusai. The Great Wave at Kanagawa, woodcut Wood cut (Ukiyo-e)

●Intaglio Printing - he principles of printing in intaglio are exactly the


opposite of those of relief printing. The design is scratched, engraved, or etched into
a metal plate. The incised line or depressed area is filled with ink, which under
considerable pressure leaves a sharp impression on damp paper.
Engraving is one of the most highly skilled methods of incising lines into a hard
surface. It is done with a cutting tool called burin.
The basic procedure of etching involves drawing an image with a blunt needle on
A metal plate that has been covered with a protective wax like film called the
ground. Portions of the wax covering are thus scratched away, exposing parts of the
metal plate. The plate is then immersed in an acid bath and the acid slowly eats into
the exposed lines and areas. After the plate is cleaned of the acid-resisting coat, it is
inked and then wiped clean so that the ink remains only in the incised lines. The
plate is then ready for printing.

● The Planographic Process – Planographic or surface printing is done from an


almost surface which has been treated chemically or mechanically so that some
areas will print and others will not. The lithographic process is based on the fact that
grease repels water and that fatty substances tend to stick to each other. The artist
draws his design with a greasy crayon or pencil on a slab of special limestone or a
zinc plate. The drawing is then fixed with an acid solution. Then the greasy ink is
spread over with a roller. A print can be made by pressing a piece of paper on the
plate.

● The Stencil Process- This is done by cutting designs out of special paper
cardboard, or metal sheet in such a way that when ink is rubbed over it, the design
is reproduced on the surface beneath.
Serigraphy, or silk-screen process printing is fundamentally a multicolor
stencil process. The printing is done through a screen which consists of a very fine
silk or nylon mesh stretched tightly over a simple wooden frame. Parts of the mesh
are blocked out with a stencil and the areas which are to print are left open. The
screen is then placed over the paper to be printed. Ink or paint is squeezed through
the open portions in the mesh into the paper or cloth underneath. For multicolor
prints a separate screen is used for each color`
Contemporary artists often combine different printmaking methods to
produce new and exciting effects.

●Photography – A painting is not, strictly speaking, an actual likeness of an


object; rather, it is the likeness of what exists in the artist’s mind, which may or may
not resemble anything in the actual world at all. A photograph, on the other hand, is
an actual likeness. The production of which may not actually involve the artist’s
creativity. One only has to press the button on a camera to produce this actual
likeness. And, as a matter of fact, now a days a camera connected to a simple
trigger device can take pictures all by itself. It is this exclusion of the artist that
accounts for photography’s not being regarded as an art by many people.
Photography is, literally, drawing or writing with light. It is a three- step process
that involves the use of such equipment and materials as a camera fitted with a
lens, shutter, and diaphragm, filters, film. Either black and white or colored; a
special kind of paper onto which the image is transferred; and other materials for
developing the negative and producing the print.

W ITH BASIC PHOTO TIPS
Written by Shutterfly Community  Last Updated: Jan 15, 2019

Photos are one of the best ways we capture memories, tell stories, and share life’s joy.
Whether you’re a new mom looking to ways to capture the best photos possible of
your baby growing up, looking for creative Instagram photo ideas, or you’re planning a
trip to a picturesque location with plenty of photo opportunities – there’s many different
reasons to pick up photography. But if you’re new to DSLRs or not quite used to your
smartphone camera, your camera may feel a little intimidating. If so, we have you
covered with our guide on photography for beginners. We’ll help you figure out the
camera and photography basics along with providing some of our favorite photography
tips for beginners.

C AMERA B ASICS
Before you dive into taking photos, you need to understand how your equipment
works. Learning about the features and mechanics of your camera – whether that’s a
point-and-shoot, smartphone, or DSLR – is vital.

For example, knowing how to turn off the automatic flash, change the shutter speed or
aperture, or even understanding the zoom function, can make or break your final
photos. It’s always best to refer to your camera’s manual when understanding the
specifics, but you can also refer to our resource on how to take good pictures with
your smartphone for phone based photography basics.

C AMERA F EATURES F OR B EGINNERS


 Viewfinder (and grid mode): You can use the viewfinder to help strategize the
composition of your photo. Grid mode turns on a helpful planning grid within the
screen.
 Zoom: While it’s generally recommended to stay away from zooming, as this
reduces quality in pictures, it’s important to understand the limitations and
benefits of your camera’s zoom.
 Focus: Most cameras come with auto focus, but you should also figure out how
to change this setting to manual once you get comfortable with other photography
basics. This will help you take more visually interesting photos.
 Color Balance: Adjust your color balance settings depending on the lighting to
help make sure your photos don’t come out in undesired colors.
 Aperture: Adjust your aperture settings so you’re better able to control the light
in your images.
 Shutter Speed: Too fast a shutter speed and your images come out dark, too
slow and they’ll come out blurry. Try to find a balance.
 Flash: While most photographers try to stick to external light sources, you still
need to understand the basics behind your camera’s flash.
 Manual Mode (and additional modes): Modes such as sport, portrait, landscape
and more help you automatically adjust for the subject of your photo. Taking your
settings off of automatic will give you more control in your photography.
 Light Balance/Exposure: Adjust this depending on how much light you want in
your images before you take them.
 ISO: Your ISO, or the sensitivity of your camera to light, will affect how much
photo grain appears in your images.
 Histogram: Your histogram is the graphical representation of color values
displayed in your camera. Make sure those values are where you want them to
be when shooting.
 RAW vs. JPEG: These files types dictate how much space you’ll have in your
memory cards along with how advance your editing will be post photoshoot. If
shooting in RAW, the larger file type, plan to bring extra memory cards

P HOTOGRAPHY E QUIPMENT F OR B EGINNERS


 Camera Body (or camera phone): Your camera body needs to be able to handle
the size of images you want to take and come with any features you feel are
essential. For example, you may not want a point-and-shoot if you want to
change your depth of field or exposure.
 Lenses (and cover): Lens come in all shapes and sizes and these are one of the
most long term investments you’ll make as they last longer than camera bodies.
Spend time picking the right lens with the focal range and functions you’ll want
most.
 Tripod: Tripod need to be sturdy, reliable, and as light right as possible. This is
an especially important investment for photographers with shaking hands.
 External Light: External lights help erase harsh shadows on your subject. This
makes them a great long term investment, especially for portrait photographers.
 External Hard Drive: Finding a way to reliably store your photos is essential.
Don’t wait until all your hard work is erased to get one. 
 Memory Cards: Always have at least two in your camera bag. That way if your
photoshoot runs longer than expected, you won’t have to go back and delete
images to make space just to keep photographing.
 Bag/Carrying Gear: You bag and carrying gear should be lightweight enough to
not hinder you while traveling to and from locations.
 Cleaning Supplies for lens and camera: Dirty lens decrease photo quality. Worst
case scenario, dirt can damage your lens, so always make sure to have proper
cleaning materials. 
 Rechargeable Batteries: Extra batteries means you can keep your photoshoot
going for much longer, and they’re ideal for long trips.

P HOTOGRAPHY BASICS
Once you’ve taken the time to get to know your equipment, it’s time to start practicing.
Begin by seeking out examples of photographers you admire and planning out the
type of photography you want to do. Save your favorite example photos for reference
and plan out locations for your photoshoots. Then, once you’re ready, refer to the
steps below.

H OW T O P HOTOGRAPH
1. Research and find photo inspiration.
2. Read your camera’s manual.
3. Make sure you understand the language. Refer to our photography terms
glossary for help.
4. Find your location and set up your equipment.
5. Frame your photo through the lens, and make sure the light and color are
balanced.
6. Hold your camera carefully.
7. Take your time.
8. Take many photos, and try not to check each one as you take them.
9. Edit your photos post photoshoot.
10. Keep practicing!

B ASIC P HOTOGRAPHY T IPS


1. Get in close. Zoom decreases your photo quality, but your feet don’t. As long as
it’s safe, physically move closer to your subject for a better photo.
2. Practice every day. Practice makes perfect and photography is no exception.
Get out there and start taking photos.
3. Check for even lighting. Harsh shadows or lack of light will severely impact the
look of your photo. Get an external light source or schedule your photoshoot for
the right time.
4. Keep an eye out for composition. Photo composition, or the arrangement of
visual elements, is key to telling your whole story.
5. Keep your batteries charged. Nothing puts a stop to a photoshoot faster than
dead batteries.
6. Plan out your depth of field. How far away is your subject? Is you subject clear
and in focus? These questions all have to deal with your depth of focus.
7. Watch for the golden hour. The Golden hour is the time when natural light is
diffused and even. This time occurs in the two hours after sunrise or two hours
before sunset.
8. Stick to the rule of thirds. The rule of thirds will help you compose your photo so
that nothing is dead center or framed in a visually boring way. Keep your subject
or composition filling two of three grid lines for this trick.
9. Experiment with filters. Filters can help you take your photo and make it
something special. Check out our resource on the best photo filter apps for more
information.
10. Learn how to work with motion. Read our guide on how to take action photos for
help with this.
11. Edit your photos. After your photoshoot make sure to take the time to edit your
favorite photos. Often this will be the step that makes them outstanding finished
projects. Look to our guide on best photo editing apps for help.
12. Keep your photos organized. Our digital scrapbooking tips will help make sure
nothing is ever lost.

13.Don’t overpack equipment. Nothing weighs you down in your efforts like weight.
Seriously ask yourself before setting out if you need that third lens or heavyweight
tripod.

14. Plan ahead. Read more about this and other travel photography tips from our hub.

15. Be aware of your background. Nothing ruins a planned portrait photoshoot


quicker than someone putting up bunny ears in the background.

15. Check your exposure. You never want your subject to be either under or over
exposed in the photo– or you’ll risk losing key features. Check this ahead of time.
15. Make sure your subject is relaxed. If you subject is nervous or upset, it’ll show
through in the photograph. Try having a normal conversation with them or
distracting them between photos to help put them at ease.

15. Try to include some variation. Whether this means changing up the scenery,
their outfit, both, or something else entirely – variation is interesting. And
interesting photos will always top plain photos.

15. For family portraits, stay organized. There’s a lot that ties together when going
for a family photo session. Keep everyone on track so you get the best ph

Summary

This module include all arts related to painting. Drawing is considered the
most fundamental skills needed in the arts. It has been said that drawing may be a
study for the sake of learning. Drawing can also be done with various mediums like
ink, which is considered the oldest material or mediun still used in the present time.
The pen and ink used by the Chinese in their landscape rendering. The use of the
sepia and bistre. The pastel and chalk , the use of charcoal in drawing whose soft
graphite produces the darkest, and velvety tones and the hardest produces the
lightest and grayest ones. The application of crayons and the silverpoint.
It also include mosaic art , an important feature of Byzantine churches as
well as mosaic art in the Philippne churches like Sta. Crus Church in Manila and
Victorias Church in Negros Occidental. Another relataed to painting is the stained
glass aet. This was developed as the major art when it appeared as an important
part of the Gothic cathedral. They are also means of religious instructions since it
depicts scenes from the Bible and from the lives of saints. It also feature the Sto.
Domingo Church in Quezon City, well-known for its lovely stained glass window from
the famous Battle of La Naval.
Printmaking is a related art of painting since it also creates images from a
duplicating process. Included are the four major processes involved in printmaking:
the relief, intaglio, planographic and the stencil process or serigraphy.
Last is the topic of photograpy. And the steps of achieving the best photo
ever.
