Painting
Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (support base). The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used.
Painting
Painting responded to the plague-darkened vision of the human condition provoked by repeated exposure to sudden, inexplicable death. Tuscan painters reacted against Giotto's serenity, preferring sterner, hieratic portrayals of religious scenes and figures. The "Dance of Death" became a common theme for art; and several other macabre motifs entered the European repertory.
William Hardy McNeill, Plagues and Peoples, Ch.4 (1976).
Painting
Pictures must not be too picturesque.

Wrought he not well that painted it?
He wrought better that made the painter; and yet he's but a filthy piece of work.
