Impressionism

Impressionist art shows life-like subjects painted in a broad quick style, with many short visible brushstrokes that are easily seen and colours that are often bright making up the artwork.

Works by Claude Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir, and Vermeer are included to learn this style.

Impasto

A painting technique where paint is laid on an area of the surface thickly, usually thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible. Paint can also be mixed right on the canvas. When dry, impasto provides texture; the paint appears to be coming out of the canvas.

The technique is commonly achieved with oil or acrylic paint due to their thicker consistency.

Can be synonymous with impressionism, the difference being the depth of the paint.

Chiaroscuro

The use of strong contrasts between light and dark across an entire composition to achieve a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects.

Works by Rembrandt Caravaggio, and Vermeer are included to learn this style
