whatever you are making art out of. Clay is a medium. Paints are a medium. Wire is a medium. Sheet metal is a medium. Computer programs are a medium. Music is a medium of art.Comment

That is probally like a graphite pencil or somthing.To me, clowns aren't funny. In fact, they're kind of scary. I've wondered
where this started and I think it goes back to the time I went to the circus,
and a clown killed my dad.

I don't think they had graphite in the 1800's.
Illustrations are Gustav Dore's based on the poem "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner."

Pen and InkOriginally posted by AGD
What are some joys and struggles of your career?
The joys are when you make it work well.
The struggles are when they want it to be a different color

looks like a pencil or a print, to me, could be pen and ink as well, it's very hard to tell.

The bottom one looks like a print, and the first two are either lead, or ink.
It would be much easier with more blown up shots.
Edit: Oh, and three looks to be whatever 2 happens to be.Comment

I think a medium is the same thing as like getting a "C" in art. Not an "A", but not a "F". Right in the middle there. Yeah....C is a medium.

Actually, lithographs do refer to a specific art/trade/what ever...just like painting or drawing. You're correct, that Litho isn't the actual medium, but its a very specific artform. It's true meaning doesnt refer to copies or poster making. It starts out as a sketch scratched into a coated metal plate. The plate then goes through several washes, and is covered with a type of ink. The plate/ink combo is pressed onto paper. That is where the print comes from.Originally posted by shartleyWE ARE DEADCELL, AND WE WILL RUN THROUGH YOU
