PAINTING

abrush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, andairbrushes, can
be used.

paint to create not only land, water, and clouds but air, wind,
and sunlight.

Areligiouswork of art shares a religious message. It might
portray a sacred story or express an artist's faith.
Religious Painting
Process of Painting
Several painting mediums are carefully prepared so that each subsequent layer of paint
contains a little more oil than the preceding layers; this will ensure a long life for the
painting without cracking. Begin the application of color with the most distant forms
first, working slowly towards the foreground elements. Even with significant
preparation, some design problems only present themselves in this final stage, and in
the absence of instructions, the solution is not always quickly found. Some shifts are
comparatively short, where paint must be allowed to dry before proceeding; other shifts
can run to 36 hours where large areas of paint must be modelled to porcelain perfection
while they are wet. Transparent glazes are added to certain areas as the painting nears
completion, and this is perhaps the only part of the whole process that happens quickly.
The final painting element is the signature, which I like to incorporate into the
landscape itself - as though the landscape and artist were somehow synonymous.

ARCHITECTURE
What is architecture?
Is an art of designing and creating buildings
ANCIENT ROMAN
ARCHITECTURE
Ancient Roman architecture developed different aspects of
Ancient Greek architecture and newer technologies such as the
arch and the dome to make a new architectural style. Its use of
new materials, particularly concrete, was a very important
feature. Roman Architecture covers the period from the
establishment of the Roman Republic in 509 BC to about the 4th
century AD, after which it becomes reclassified as Late Antique
or Byzantine architecture. Roman architectural style continued
to influence building in the former empire for many centuries,
and the style used in Western Europe beginning about 1000 is
called Romanesque architecture to reflect this dependence on
basic Roman forms.
ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE
Islamic architecture encompasses a wide range of both
secular and religious styles from the foundation of Islam to the
present day. What today is known as Islamic architecture owes
its origin to similar structures already existing in Roman,
Byzantine and Persian lands which the Muslims conquered in
the 7th and 8th centuries. The principal Islamic architectural
types are: the Mosque, the Tomb, the Palace and the Fort. From
these four types, the vocabulary of Islamic architecture is
derived and used for other buildings such as public baths,
fountains and domestic architecture.

GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE
Gothic architecture is a style of architecture that flourished
during the high and late medieval period. It evolved from
Romanesque architecture and was succeeded by
Renaissance architecture. Originating in 12th-century France
and lasting into the 16th century, Gothic architecture was
known during the period as Opus Francigenum ("French work")
with the term Gothic first appearing during the later part of the
Renaissance. Its characteristics include the pointed arch, the
ribbed vault and the flying buttress. Gothic architecture is most
familiar as the architecture of many of the great cathedrals,
abbeys and churches of Europe.

BAROQUE ARCHITECTURE
Baroque architecture is the building style of the Baroque era,
begun in late 16th-century Italy, that took the Roman
vocabulary of Renaissance architecture and used it in a new
rhetorical and theatrical fashion, often to express the triumph of
the Catholic Church and the absolutist state. It was
characterized by new explorations of form, light and shadow,
and dramatic intensity. Baroque architecture and its
embellishments were on the one hand more accessible to the
emotions and on the other hand, a visible statement of the
wealth and power of the Church.

NEOCLASSICAL
ARCHITECTURE
Neoclassical architecture is an architectural style produced
by the neoclassical movement that began in the mid-18th
century. In its purest form it is a style principally derived from
the architecture of classical antiquity, the Vitruvian principles,
and the architecture of the Italian architect Andrea Palladio.
In form, Neoclassical architecture emphasizes the wall rather
than chiaroscuro and maintains separate identities to each of its
parts. The style is manifested both in its details as a reaction
against the Rococo style of naturalistic ornament, and in its
architectural formulae as an outgrowth of some classicising
features of Late Baroque. Neoclassical architecture is still
designed today, but may be labelled New Classical Architecture

RESORT ARCHITECTURE
Resort architecture is an architectural style that is especially
characteristic of spas and seaside resorts on the German Baltic
coast. The style evolved since the foundation of Heiligendamm
in 1793, and flourished especially around the year 1900, when
resorts were connected to big cities via railway lines. Until
today, many buildings on the German coasts are built in the
style or feature distinct elements of resort architecture.
MODERN ARCHITECTURE
Modern architecture or modernist architecture is a term applied to an
overarching movement, with its exact definition and scope varying widely.
[1] The term is often applied to modernist movements at the turn of the
20th century, with efforts to reconcile the principles underlying
architectural design with rapid technological advancement and the
modernization of society. It would take the form of numerous movements,
schools of design, and architectural styles, some in tension with one
another, and often equally defying such classification. [1] The term Modern
architecture may be used to differentiate from Classical architecture
following Vitruvian ideals, while it is also applied to various
contemporary architecture styles such as Postmodern, High-tech or even
New Classical, depending on the context.

POSTMODERN
ARCHITECTURE
Postmodern architecture began as an international style the
first examples of which are generally cited as being from the
1950s, but did not become a movement until the late 1970s[1]
and continues to influence present-day architecture.
Postmodernity in architecture is said to be heralded by the
return of "wit, ornament and reference" to architecture in
response to the formalism of the International Style of
modernism. As with many cultural movements, some of
Postmodernism's most pronounced and visible ideas can be
seen in architecture.

FAMOUS FILIPINO
ARCHITECTS
LEANDRO LOCSIN
Leandro Locsin- (1928-1994) a brilliant architect, interior
designer, artist and classically trained pianist, Locsin was also a
keen art collector, amassing a sizable collection of fineChinese
art and ceramics during his lifetime. His most substantial
contribution to Filipino architecture is the
Cultural Center of the Philippines, a collection of five buildings
that demonstrate the architects drive to find a vernacular form
of modernist architecture.
ILDEFONSO P. SANTOS
Ildefenso P Santos- The father of Philippine landscape
architecture. He created some of the best-loved urban spaces in
the Philippines. Landscape architecture, which deals with parks,
plazas and green spaces, was a little-considered element of
urban planning in the first half of the 20th century. However,
Santos changed that, carrying out pioneering work that, after
four decades in the profession, led him to become National
Artist for Architecture in 2006. One of his earliest successful
projects was the Makati Commercial Center, an outdoor
shopping mall in which the shop fronts and walkways were
interspersed with garden trails, fountains and public artworks.
ANTONIO PABLO
Pablo Antonio- One of the first exponents of modernist
architecture in the Philippines. Antonio (1901-1975) is revered
as a pioneer and the foremost architect of his time. This success
was perhaps unexpected for a boy who was orphaned at 12 and
dropped out of his first architecture degree. It was during his
studies at the University ofLondonthat Antonio began to shine,
completing a five-year program in only three years. One of his
successful projects was the school of Far Eastern University.
CARLOS A. SANTOS-VIOLA
Carlos A. Santos-Viola- An urbane young man who enjoyed lawn
tennis and playing the saxophone, Carlos Santos-Viola was also
a gifted architect. He was a devout Catholic throughout his life,
and many of his best known designs were executed for the
Iglesia Ni Cristo, a Filipino religious group. Santos-Viola created
churches for the group all over the archipelago, designed in a
style quite distinct from that of his contemporaries. The desire
for functionality informed almost all of Santos-Violas work, and
he was fond of asserting that, the structure must not only look
good but must also be made well.
Frank Gehry
Frank Gehry is a standout architect. He regularly extends the
metaphorical middle finger to traditional design, producing some of the
most innovative and quirky buildings of the modern era.
His work is completely distinctive, with many of them, including his
home, having become tourist attractions due to their unique aesthetic.
While most of Gehrys work is iconic one of his most noticeable
buildings is the titanium-covered Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. Yes,
the Guggenheims dont mess about when designing their museums.
GUGGENHEIM BILBAO
Tom Wright
Tom Wright is one of the younger architects appearing on this page but
his work on one of the most iconic buildings of all time, a relatively new
one at that, has put him here with distinction. British-born, Wright is
responsible for the design of the worlds most recognizable hotel, the
Burj Al Arab in Dubai, which is recognised as one of the tallest and most
recognisable buildings in the world.
BURJ AL ARAB
James Hoban
Probably the most recognizable building in the world, the White House
was designed by Irish architect James Hoban. In the late 1770s Hoban
submitted a plan for the design of the presidential mansion. He won the
commission and construction began in 1793. The mansion was completed
in 1801.
