Quite a few actually. It can mean natural or artificial light used in the composition. It can also be a light color or area.

Tie dying clothing has been popular in countries such as India for a very long time.But here in the USA it came into fashion in the 60's and 70's with the "Hippie"movement. Batik (using wax resist) was also popular , as was Macrame' (a kind of knitting with string, thin rope or jute, and other crafts that were mostly taken from Southeast Asian influences. But Tie Dye clothes here spread acoss the nation very quickly! Hippies were interested in many crafts they could make easily and inexpensively. It was part of the "Woodstock" generation!(The "Beatniks" or Beat Generation who came earlier , influenced much of the Hippie ideals, of a non- commericial style of living, green and off the land using only homemade crafts and household objects.1975 to 1978 was probably the height of Tie Dye, although it is still practiced today, it too has become commercialized by stores such as Walmart, Target and many others.

Although, this statue is not typically attributed to any one famous sculptor, the fact that it adorns so many of the world's courthouses has rendered it one of the more well known sculptures. While it goes by many names, the most popular are Lady Justice, Scales of Justice, and Blind Justice. The statue dates it origins from ancient Greek and Roman times as the lady represented is Themis, the goddess of justice and law. Well known for her clear sightedness, she typically holds a sword in one hand and scales in the other. The scales that she holds represent the impartiality with which justice is served and the sword signifies the power that is held by those making the decision. During the 16th century, artists started showing the lady blindfolded to show that justice is not subject to influence. From this, the statue earned the name Blind Justice. The origin may be Themis, a Greek mythological goddess. One of the Titans, pre-Hellenic nature deities born to Uranus and Ge, she remained and advised Zeus after his purge of the old pantheon. In depictions of her, she carries the scales of justice in one hand and a sword in the other, her eyes covered. She became an oracle at Delphi, and became known as a goddess of divine justice.

A daughter of Themis and Zeus, Dike, known as a goddess of justice but not divine justice, presided over the apportionment of things among mortals, the protection of individuals and the keeping of social and political order. She carried a sword without a scale of justice. At times Dike is said to be the same (or is she confused with?) Astraea. Astraea is also said to be a daughter of Themis and Zeus and is known as a goddess of justice. Also known as daughter of Eos and Astraeus 1, her head was crowned with ears of grain and for its measure carried a balance or scale. Astraea was the last of the immortals to leave earth after the Golden Age. She has also been called a goddess of purity and innocence. She became the constellation Virgo. Dike left earth when the Race of Bronze was born.

The Egyptians honored Maat, the daughter of the sun god, Ra. She also carried a sword but without a scale of justice.

Justitia, a Roman goddess of justice, wore a blindfold. She had been depicted with sword and scales, but was not always so.

Representations of the Lady of Justice in the Western tradition occur in many places and at many times. She sometimes wears a blindfold, more so in Europe, but more often she appears without one. She usually carries a sword and scales. Almost always draped in flowing robes, mature but not old, no longer commonly known as Themis, she symbolizes the fair and equal administration of the law, without corruption, avarice, prejudice, or favor.

The Futurist movement in art centers around the idea of capturing in one dimension the fast moving three-dimensional world. One of the techniques used by the Futurists and others was this notion of implied motion. The artists wanted to convey for the viewers the movement of a person or an object so they broke it down into many separate pieces to make it look like it is in motion.

Sketching is a quick drawing done to put your ideas down, it's often lineart and very messy but captures the general idea.

Rendering is the process of refining and adding shape and form to a drawing/painting in the terms of shadows. Ie a slightly more refined process.

I think that sports is a part of culture because some cultures always play a type of a sport that they like. They could of invented a sport and always played it.

oh wow this is kind of a personal opinion thing. i think, some thing that shows skill, that can have meaning to a lot of people(or at least some thing that is really cool looking) also some thing that shows inspiration and creativity. for instance i like "starry starry night" but am not a fan of a regular red square in the middle of a white canvas, though both are called art.

can you give me 10 cons and 10 pros about being an art teacher???????

Graphic art is mainly 2D, like sketching or painting. Plastic art, I would assume is basically sculptures or other figures made of plastic.

Beethoven was right on the line between Classical and Romantic music. He's the most famous but there might be a previous one.

Gouache (from the Italian guazzo, "water paint, splash") or bodycolor (the term preferred by art historians) is a type of paint consisting of pigment suspended in water. Gouache differs from watercolor in that the particles are larger, the ratio of pigment to water is much higher, and an additional, inert, white pigment such as chalk is also present. This makes gouache heavier and more opaque, with greater reflective qualities.

One example was Giorgio de Chirico. His buildings are mysterious or frightening.

The word Imperial means something related to an empire or emperor. Any art created for an emperor or by an empire is considered to be Imperial Art. Some examples include the paintings done for Napoleon by Jacques Louis-David, The Winter Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia. Periods in art history are also referred to as Imperial, like Imperial Rome.

Start with a picture of the person's face. Use the picture to draw the shape of the person's head. Next, add the eyebrows and then the eyes. Finish the rest of the facial features and your end product will be a drawing of the person's face in the picture. If you want to draw a face that is no one in particular, picture a face in your mind and do the steps I described. new answer The best way is to take a drawing lesson or follow instructions in a book. What it comes down to is mathematical measurements. Start by getting a good picture of someone that is facing you, then draw an oval, disregarding the hair. The top of the oval represents the scalp line and the bottom is the chin. Divide the oval first in half then into thirds. The eyebrows usually are placed at the one third mark. At the halfway mark, is where the eyes should be situated. Measure the width of an eye, leave a space on either side of the oval the same size as your measurement, draw an ellipse to represent the eye. Leave another eye width space between the eyes and draw another ellipse. The nose should be placed between the two ellipses. The sides of the nose connect to the eyebrow line. The end of the nose should arrive at the the two thirds mark, which coincidentally is where the earlobes should also end. Divide the bottom one third into thirds again. In the first third you should place the upper lip, in the second third, the bottom lip and in the final third place the curved line indicating the chin. All of these lines should be drawn very lightly and loosely, once the elements are correctly placed and the proportions adjusted. You can begin doing the detail work, like adding shading and hightlights. The hair can be left for last. Don't try to draw every single strand, just draw in dark areas and leave the paper white or pale where the light hits. These measurements are of an ideal face, take in mind that every individual is different and you might need to make some adjustments, depending upon your model.
