The next time you step out and enjoy art, in whatever form, be sure to allow for the benefit of the doubt. You may not agree with the message, form, or composition. The skills used in its expression may be polished or crude. But try to discover for yourself what is being said in the artistic effort.

An Introduction To Oil PaintingsFlemish painter Jan van Eyck (1390-1441) is credited as being the first painter to use the technique of oil painting in his work. His 1434 wedding portrait of Giovanni Arnolfini and his wife, which is now in the National Gallery in London, is accepted by historians as the first and best sample of an oil painting. After him, Antonello da Messina, Leonardo da Vinci, and several others improved the technique to aid faster drying and improve its richness and flexibility.

African ArtDifferent art genres have different themes that distinguish them from other genres. This is because these themes often reflect the culture of the place where the art genre originated. They represent things that are significant to that culture. One example of such a genre is the artwork you can find in the Vatican, where the themes are mostly religious. Another example is the African art genre, where the themes are distinctly African. There are four very common themes in African art that show African culture. These include "a couple," "a woman and child," "a male with a weapon or an animal," and an outsider or "stranger."
