Explain the painting process, using terms such as pigments, medium, binder, support, ground, solvent, and vehicle
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. To create paint, powdered colors—that is, pigments—are suspended in a medium—or binder—which could be oil, water, egg whites, or another substance.
2. The binder stabilizes the paint and adheres it to the support, which is the surface on which the artist applies the paint.
3. The support might be primed with a ground, which prepares and makes the surface smoother and more uniform in texture.
4. Artists use a solvent or vehicle, a thinner that makes the paint flow more smoothly.
