Yes, they did. They painted many subjects and themselves on the walls of their homes and temples. The walls were in bright colors and of all subjects, in fact, some of it we would consider obsceneThephallic symbol was a popular one seen in many places including the doors of people's homes. Whole walls were painted in homes and the floors were often done in small mosaic tiles to form pictures of animals, people, and imaginary beasts. In the palace Nero built in Rome he was said to have not only painted the walls with these things, had mosaic floors, but added gems to the walls and ceilings so when the light hit them they sparkled. A big part of the funeral practices included painted pictures of the person who had died along with symbols of their faith and beliefs. It is because of these things that historians can tell us of the people of Roman and what they did.
Ancient Romans had it rough if they were painters. Paint was usually extracted through minerals (red from cinnabar (sp) and yellow from arsenic..weird right?) Charcoal was used for black. The method the way Romans obtained their colors remains unexplained and is still studied, but brighter colors like green and blue were created by being crushed by minerals such as malachite and azurite (sp)
If you're talking Roman Renaissance paint, then oil would be the most prevalent style and mode for paintings. The traditional methods of acquiring the pigment were improved dramatically and new shades of colors were produced and certain minerals were favored over others.. For example, the mineral Lapiz Lazuli is absolutely brilliant and was the preferred shade of blue but at the time, it was extremely expensive and hard to come by.
Basically, crushed minerals, extracted herbs, and LOTS of experimenting with different colors to produce new ones is the extent of our knowledge of the ancient methods of creating color.... not too shabby for 2,000+ years ago.
The palette for an ancient Roman painter, which I'm assuming involves the "roman paint" you're referring to would be kinda close to this.. Black, lead white and chalky white, raw and burnt siena, malachite-shaded green, and azurite (sort of a aquamarine shade of blue, red (cinnabar as it was called), a dull powdery yellow, another shade of blue called cerulean (sky blue essentially) indigo and rose madder were both extracted from Madder plants (not the nicer ones...haha...see what I did there)
The roman candles were called roman candles because they were made in rome...and that's where they were first made.
