Question: What Type of Art (Medium) Is This Piece?

Answer 1

An artwork's medium refers to the different materials or supplies that an artist utilizes in order to create a work of art. In painting, medium can refer to both the type of paint used and the base or ground to which the paint is applied .Hold the painting at an angle and look at the paint's texture on the canvas. If it's highly textured and looks very layered, the painting is likely an oil painting. Acrylic paint dries smooth and somewhat rubbery-looking .
