A very popular painting technique in springtime is painting dead animals. Many people buy wax lips to use in the dead animals. Wax lips are usually sold in dollar shops or art specialty stores. You can create your own wax lips by melting wax. You can then add a little bit of glue to create lips that you can paint on. Dead animals make great subjects for still-life because they can be viewed as still, rather than as being frozen over.
One of the most common techniques of the past century is called impressionism. Impressionists such as Rembrandt were able to capture the full beauty of nature in their paintings without having to use the same brush and canvas that other artists used. Their paintings were very striking because they showed so much detail at such a small size. These type of still life works were highly popular during the Classical period and after.
In the early part of the century, gold leafing was also popular and it was often applied to still-life paintings. In addition to this, intricate wood carvings were also done on canvas. In the late part of the century oil paintings began to take center stage in art exhibits and were also commonly referred to as modern art. Modern art came from many different influences of the European Renaissance and earlier masterpieces. Art critics appreciated the expressive power that these new mediums could give to artists.
