The Works Of Art
what do you know about art? By Taylor Brown
The theory from where art comes from
As we all know art is one of the many things people enjoy in life. But do we really know where art comes from? how it was made or created? Scientists have been trying to figure out this dilemma for generations. As seen in the picture below which I am sure all of you have seen before. You got it! It's a very old cave wall painting made from cavemen. Now way back a long, long, long time ago, about 500 million years ago, Cavemen used the drawings on a cave wall to explain what they did during the day, They sort of used it as a diary for everyday life since paper hadn't been created back then.
Later years
There are probably some really famous artists that probably inspire you or intimidate you. Now one artist that I will be focusing on today is you guessed it. Vincent Van Gogh. He was a wonderful artist at his time, Even creating the very famous art piece 'Starry Night'. Which i am sure all of you know. Now when he first started painting, Most pieces were very dark and droopy because during his time a war was going on and it had everyone depressed, Shown in the picture below is a picture of very dark, dead sunflowers.
Vincent Van gogh (Continued)
Now in later years he realized that these dark paintings he sold did not even get a single person to buy them. So he tried using vibrant colors to try to cheer people up, Get them to buy the paintings. He had a fascination with sunflowers, and he loved drawing them As seen below. But sadly only around the age of 30, He had killed himself due to so much anxiety and depression. That's when his paintings started to become famous, and now we all remember him by his beautiful paintings.

Some Of The Daily Art Supplies
The Art Tablet
The first most commonly used for making digital art is the common Art Tablet. You can connect the cord into your computer and the specialized pen for the tablet helps you draw onto your computer just like were drawing in a sketchbook instead of using the mouse. It is a very easy program to deal with and it may take time to get adjusted to the feel
Copic markers
Up next are Copic Markers. These are used for usually manga artists. They're pen nibs are extremely soft and these markers are as well alcoholic, meaning they can sometimes blend with other colors. They make will soft, straight lines when in use and they are great for any coloring.
Fountain Pens
Up next is the fountain pen, Now I know what you think fountain pens are really old and only elderly use them most the time, but a quantity of artists use the fountain pen not only because of its unique structure but, because of the very smooth lines it makes and and the rare ink it carries. They are also really well for writing, Back then since they wrote so smoothly people used them so people could read clearly.
