The Acrylic Paint is a fast drying synthetic paint which combines some of the properties of oil and watercolor

Oil paint is a type of slow-drying paint that consists of particles of pigment suspended in a drying oil, commonly linseed oil. 

Watercolours painted with water-soluble colour inks instead of modern watercolours are called aquarellum atramento.

Sketching is usually a required aspect of an art student's curriculum. Making sketches from a live model whose pose varies every few minutes.

The color pencil sketch is a type of art similar to pencil sketching, but the only difference is that it has a wide range of colors instead of just black.

Charcoal can produce exceptionally brilliant or strong black lines, and explore higher contrast and allow to develop visually rich toned artworks.

Most spray paints are oil-based, and they last longer than latex paint (water based paints).

Tempera is a water-soluble and long lasting painting medium made up of colored pigments and a water-soluble binder medium, usually viscous fluid like egg yolk.

Encaustic painting or hot wax painting, is a method of making artworks by utilizing a heated encaustic media to which colored pigments have been added.

The pastel painting style creates a painting with a velvety texture and a lot of lusciousness.

Crushed colored sandstone, charcoal, pollen, or other dry material are applied on colored and smooth sand background to make sand paintings.

With contrast to traditional painting, the entire artwork is created digitally in Digital Painting.

One of its unique characteristics is the ability to change the ink grade by changing the pressure and position of the nib within a single brush stroke.

Only white paint (made from rice flour) and a colorful background are used in traditional Warli painting. The painting style is typical of cave paintings.
